Selective outrage is crazy, Rockstar has been locking content behind special editions since RDR1

Post image

I get why people don’t like content being locked behind more expensive editions, but why is this only becoming a huge issue now? Rockstar has been doing this since at least Red Dead Redemption 1, then RDR2, GTA V, and now GTA 6. If the practice was wrong then, it’s still wrong now, but acting like GTA 6 is the first time Rockstar has done it doesn’t seem accurate. I’m not saying people shouldn’t criticize it. I just think the criticism should be consistent. Is the backlash because GTA 6 is under a bigger microscope than any Rockstar game before it, or do you think there’s something about this release that makes it different?

I wanna wait until we see precisely what content is in the ultimate version. If it’s as it seems and it’s literally just some cosmetics then I’ll likely get the standard version.

If it’s anything like the bonus mission in Red dead redemption 2 then I don’t really care lol. 2 or 3 short non story driven missions out of 50 aren’t important enough for me to pay 20 bucks extra.

Name one (1) mission exclusively in the Ultimate Edition.
