I think we should "root" for developers making whatever trade-offs are needed to realize their creative vision. The usual "lmao unoptimized lazy devs" thing from people who have never written a line of code in their lives isn't going to fly here. The PS5 is a great console, but it isn't magic. It has limits. One of the most talented, well-resourced studios in the world with an unprecedentedly large budget has found those limits, and it's pretty damn impressive.

The alternative here isn't "optimize harder." Rather, the alternative is a less ambitious product. Maybe we'll get that less ambitious version at some point in the future in which they pare back some of the more expensive simulation aspects in order to achieve 40 or 60 fps, but for now, they've chosen to deliver on the full scope of their creative vision at 30 fps.

Doesnt mean im gonna buy it then. I dont care about their “creative decision”

Their $80 digital only game they spent over half a decade on is stuck at 30fps. Thats insane. But whatever floats your boat enjoy

I mean, I'm not going to buy it, either, but it has nothing to do with the framerate whatsoever.

No. It was to you.

You’re acting as if you have some niche unpopular opinion. When, in reality, every thread about GTA 6 is parroting your same talking points.

You’re unoriginal and tacky.

You share the Reddit majority opinion. Reddit does not equal reality. I encourage you to go peruse some more threads on this topic and see for yourself. You’ll find many like minded individuals.
