I just hate these news that GTA online is making even more money.
This online micro-transaction trend is so bad for gaming and diverts developer focus completely in the wrong direction.
Now it's guaranteed that Red Dead 2 will be filled with this online and micro-bullshit. But more importantly this has a huge effect on gaming development as a whole, and lots of single player games will be canceled for the online focus. The online focus that means a cynical design mentality that only aims to get the player hooked to just one superficial online world filled with empty cosmetics, skins and upgrades. Increasingly (just like Ubisoft and others have predicted) a few big games will dominate the market and steal all the revenue from smaller, much more sophisticated games.
