There's nothing really new here but it's interesting how we have it straight from ex-devs that everything we suspected about micro-transactions and how devs only ever care about making content for that is true. We will likely never see a big singleplayer game from established studios ever again thanks to all the addicts constantly buying micro-transactions.
I'm looking forward to seeing what a piece of shit GTA VI is going to be, my money is going to be on them doing a relatively small campaign and they are going to shove absolutely everything into the 'new' GTA Online.
GTA Online and Fortnite have done so much damage to the industry. Of course, it's not just them: Overwatch loot boxes, gatcha games in general, everything all the way back to the fucking horse armor.
If gamers just hadn't opened up their wallets to buy the slop, we wouldn't have this metastasized cancer running around.
I agree, Rockstar is definitely making some GTA content that they have no plans on including it in GTA6 - it's going straight to GTA Online 2 or whatever.
The silver lining is that yeah, it's easier than ever for people to start an indie game company.
