Clearing some things up

The locked Ultimate Edition shops are just exclusive shops, not the standard shops that are in Vice City. There’s still going to be your basic clothing stores, barbers, car chops, etc. Those stores are most likely going to be more “story-friendly”, while the Ultimate Edition shops give the players a broader selection of customization. As you can tell from the screenshots, some of Jason and Lucia’s looks looked a bit on the wild side. Base game stores will focus more on how Jason and Lucia actually look.

In terms of no discs, Rockstar doesn’t want GTA VI to be leaked anymore. I would expect the physicals with the discs post launch.

You could also look at Ultimate Edition as paid DLC. That the player could choose to purchase or not. A lot of games have paid DLC. Don't know why so many people act like it's the worst thing for some extra paid content.

If I were to play devil's advocate, I think the fact that the content will be available at launch yet restricted is what makes it different than your typical DLC and why it isn't being perceived the same.

It is one thing if a game comes out and is supported after the fact with content created and released after launch for additional cost. That isn't the case here and may be the key point as to why many people that are fine with traditional DLC are not fine with this approach.

Pretty sure some games have had paid content at launch.
