Yeah, those Rockstar games with their history of nickel and dimeing the parts of the game that matter.
I couldn't give a shit about the Online aspect, but it's the fact they ignore singleplayer because of it. Not only did we miss out on kickass singleplayer DLC, but Online has so many quality of life features that could easily be ported to singleplayer. I hate having to drive like a normal person with an expensive car I just bought because they didn't bother to add the insurance feature, and the recovery system for abandoned cars is utter shit. I know R* will deliver on a great singleplayer, I'm more concerned about them shelving it afterwards - be it their own choice or Take Two's. I know a lot of people say this dramatically when a developer tries something new, and I usually criticise it, but I won't be surprised if they dip their toes into online only territory soon. Might be better off for it, who knows.
