the gta 6 ultimate edition is paid cheat codes with better branding
Premium vehicles, premium gear and special story content used to sound like the stuff you unlocked by playing or entered a code to access. Now it is an edition comparison chart.
I am not pretending this will ruin the game. I am saying the product is selling convenience and toys before anyone has played the first mission. If an expensive car makes the early story easier, that is a paid cheat. If it is only cosmetic, then the marketing is charging extra for menu clutter.
The funniest outcome is that I buy the basic edition, enter an actual cheat code and have a better afternoon.
paid shortcuts are still shortcuts even when the store calls them premium access
story mode bonuses always make the opening feel less intentional. i want the first bad car the story gives me
i will defend many forms of nonsense but a spreadsheet of editions before gameplay is exhausting
