stop saying gta 6 has an 80 hour story
rob nelson said his recent gta 6 playthrough took about 80 hours.
that does NOT mean the main story is confirmed to be 80 hours. he specifically said that run included optional goals with narrative ramifications.
which honestly sounds more interesting anyway. i would rather have a 50 hour story plus 30 hours of side stuff that actually changes relationships or missions than 80 hours of mandatory driving conversations because the box needs a big number.
please stop turning one developer playthrough into a stopwatch spec.
optional goals with narrative consequences is the actual headline and everyone skipped it for NUMBER BIG
my playthrough will be 140 hours because 35 of those are trying to land a stolen helicopter somewhere stupid
80 hours is also a rockstar director playing a game he knows. normal people are going to spend six hours looking for one entrance
