    TBoGT was Luis, who was pretty much what VI’s male protag (Jason?) should’ve been. He actually had a personality other than just being the big badass guy.

    I suspect the reason they haven’t had female protagonists before is just pure male defaultism rampant in the gaming industry. Gamers would’ve made a ton of noise in the past. Otherwise, a game with Catalina as the protagonist could’ve been really interesting.

    I suspect two things:

    The world will be more immersive and less soulless once we can actually navigate it. It’s also the first time there’s been a swamp in GTA which is cool.

    Lucia will be by far the better protagonist. The other one seems poorly written and with a voice completely mismatching the character model. I think Lucia will have more depth and her voice is more pleasant.

    This game is what’s finally going to push me upgrade my 3060Ti in a few years but… I’m not exactly hopeful on there being anything to upgrade to. Would prefer to skip nvidia and amd has decided to abandon the high end market but if I’m upgrading, I’d like to go up a tier or two, not just a few generations. I want to be blown away by the card that’s going to have to last me the next 5-10 years.

    I’m also guessing there won’t be a new GPU generation out next year.

    RDR1 was a special case, San Diego didn’t port their previous few games either which is why we don’t have Midnight Club LA on PC for example.

    GTA is too big. It’s guaranteed extra sales for a game they already have. Same with RDR2, it was heaps more popular than the first (which itself was more popular than expected I guess) so leaving it console exclusive was never really on the table.
