It’s not because “it could be worse” that it shouldn’t be better. There’s no good reason to force players to sign into a dedicated account to play a singleplayer game. It’s not because other publishers are worse that this isn’t a gaming sin. Pointing the finger to less green pastures only gives the current one a chance to match the landscape.
GTA6 will almost certainly be a multiplayer game. As others have pointed out, at least there’s a logic behind it for a multiplayer game. There is exactly zero reason, other than corporate bs, to have this in a single player game. That’s been the argument in this entire thread, so GTA6 possibly getting praise while also requiring a separate account is entirely irrelevant.

Ok, cool.
Let’s revisit this when Rockstar gets universal adoration for GTA6, which will absolutely require a Rockstar account & launcher.

You really think GTA6 won’t have a single player component? And that it won’t require a Rockstar account/launcher?
Yup. Sadly it’s always the same old song and dance. Death by a thousand cuts because basic consumer rights don’t actually exist.
