The argument
Collider writes that GTA 6 is a culmination of what players want from big single-player games, while much of the industry chases live service and microtransactions. Its shadow could push Rockstar’s next project toward something smaller and new, rather than another sequel.
Is this real? Unconfirmed, only a claim so far
