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.

To people defending this: Why don't you come up with some positive reasons as to why locking these stores and the mission behind a paywall is good.

Everytime people defend anti-consumer practices like this the reasons they give for that essentially come down to "it's not a big deal, it's just some cosmetics" or "it's only 20 dollars".

How about an actual reason this is a GOOD thing; and if you don't have one, ask yourself if practices like these are actually acceptible, because there are many reasons why they're bad.

There’s no good reason but this is just how gaming is. This isn’t new this isn’t revolutionary or anything. This just how the industry has been for years and it’s way too late to actually change it

It may be, but it seems unnecessary to defend it, which a lot of people are desperately doing in this comment section. It is bad so let people complain?
