    1. Fire a bunch of people who were forming a union, blame any other reason.

    2. Say game needs another 6 months to make perfect, don’t acknowledge it’s obviously because you just fired a bunch of people.

    3. Profit, because there’s a huge GTA fan base of idiots

      I haven’t played a GTA game since 3ish. Had been thinking “maybe I’ll jump back in when 6 launches”.

      Thanks for the info. Maybe I’ll just continue playing the million other games in my backlog. Fuck AAAA greed.

        Yeah, I didn’t play V until this year when I got it for free.

        I’ll play GTA 6 someday, but probably not till it’s at most $20.

      They didn’t seem to be directly related to development, so it’s likely the other way around:
      game gets delayed --> postpone cash flow --> need to save money on unnecessary roles.
