GTA VI

[Aragorn]

Certainly but i'm not sure the escapist Scarface simulator benefits from bringing the wife along to every mission. Each new Rockstar game seems to add more baggage and less agency to the protagonist which defeats the point of the egoistic crime fantasy. It's either being held down by grove street, or your dumbass cousin, or a wife and kids, and so on. I think SA and IV still handled it quite well but the bloke in RDR2 was comically subservient and this seems like a continuation of that.

i think it's okay for a 29 year old franchise to evolve past ''take a gun and shoot this crowd''.

I'm not even a shooter for Rockstar - I enjoyed V, RDR and RDR2 (even though it had worn its stay for me and I couldn't even get through the epilogue) but I don't think they're best in class outside of some very specific areas they excel at.
