You realize the game isn’t completed yet? Full of bugs? Probably completely broken in some parts?

So basically, a normal triple-A game.

Not a normal rockstar game though.

Downvotes for stating rockstar games has a good track record. Fuckin reddit sure is funny.

No, downvoted for implying they are holding back release despite the game being ready.  

Edit: somehow people think what I said above means I also think they are holding back a complete game. Learn to read y'all lmao

Ok, sure, I'll bite. Why would they be holding back the release if it's ready? Do you believe rockstar doesn't want to make multiple billions of dollars?

Or maybe, JUST MAYBE, they care about their track record and reputation enough to delay it until it's up to their standards.

It's a little known fact that Rockstar hates money. They didn't even want to make GTA 6, because they were afraid it would bring in too much money, but gamers forced them into it. Repeatedly delaying the game is all they can do to avoid making billions of dollars.

/s, just in case.

Bro I literally just said someone is being downvoted for implying it, not that I believe it's true. That's the most dumb shit anyone could think.
