Rockstar is one of the video game industry's most celebrated studios, famous for Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption, and other huge franchises. Few other developers command the same hype, and the unprecedented success of GTA V has made the long wait for GTA 6 even more painful for fans.
It’s taking so long because GTA V through GTA Online is a massive cash cow with infinite pockets.
Why? It’s so boring, I only play it when I want to play car simulator for a half hour. If you try to do any objective that requires you stepping out of your car, looking at a map for 15 seconds or picking a lock, some 13 year old will roll up and frag you with a rocker launcher. Almost no one works together, and there is always at least one or two dudes in every server that are whales and just spend the entire time pissing off everyone that they can. The don’t care about missions because they already bought whatever they wanted.
Because with one simple purchase of $45.99, you can be that 13 year old with the best and coolest gear in the game!
That’s who it panders too, people with short attention spans and easy wallets who will gladly dish out money for immediate rewards. That applies well to 13 year olds with access to their parents credit card
