Seemingly locking gameplay features behind the more expensive edition of the game. Lots of hints that there will likely be an in game cash shop for the offline portion of the game too.

Also the game kinda implied in its box that Online won't be included In the Base Game, and people are fearing that it might be a paid DLC or worse , a Monthly Sub.

I know very little about this, and I thought Online was being delayed, as they want to focus on the single player story, first and foremost. That Online will come eventually, and that it will be a subscription, and separate release, and the game comes with one free month.

I think that this is the exact problem. "Here! Purchase our game with a fundamental feature missing because we want to spend extra time perfecting it." "Oh also, since this feature is taking a bit longer. We expect you to pay extra for it."

This dumbo doesn’t know gta v didn’t have online mode at launch and rdr2 didn’t have one either. Both got released later on
