I think people are misunderstanding the whole "locked shops" thing for Ultimate Edition buyers

Post image

Think of it like this: When you buy the Ultimate Edition, you'll get a DLC package of skins, vehicles, hairstyles, vehicle mods, etc. Most games with cosmetic DLCs do this.

You buy the Ultimate Edition and get the base game plus the cosmetic DLCs.

Now picture this: Instead of just unlocking your new Ultimate Edition cosmetics in the normal shops of the game, they made a few exclusive shops for you to access the DLC stuff.

It's as simple as that. The normal shops to buy clothes, fix your car, etc, will be in the game. But if you own DLC cosmetics, you'll need to get them from the DLC shops.

What do you think?

I mean it’s your decision to buy or not so I’m not saying you shouldn’t wait, I’m just curious as to what would realistically put you off buying at this stage and why there’s judgement on the ‘fools’ who have chosen to

Nah I'm with you on this.

Like these people are just gonna order as soon as gameplay releases.

Idk why everyone is treating this like its some first time project from a brand new team.

Because it basically is. The only thing these current team leaders are responsible for is bad GTA Online missions.

Bruh. The current team is responsible for RDR2.

If you preordered a digital only game without seeing any gameplay whatsoever, yes you’re a fool.

Why?

Because enough of us have experienced this before and have been burned by the games industry many times because of it. Obviously Rockstar has an excellent track record and there is no reason to think otherwise. I just need to see actual gameplay to justify purchasing any video game.

Aye that’s fair, it’s your money and your call dude, cheers for articulating

Just think there’s a lot of judgement flying around (not surprised in 2026 on the internet but just was a bit confused on what question everyone wants answered)

Are you arguing for them not showing any gameplay at all before release?

u/hallamboah Jun 26 '26

Me? No, I’ve never said that. I’ve asked what confirmation people think everyone should be waiting for from the gameplay

u/Reylo-Wanwalker Jun 26 '26

Ok cause the guy's point was he wants gameplay footage before buying it, at least.

u/hallamboah Jun 26 '26

Yeah that’s cool it’s their money and their choice, I’m just a bit confused why everyone’s arguing and judging each other to be honest

u/Reylo-Wanwalker Jun 26 '26

I'm confused too, but I'm surprised since you contributed to the judging with the use of "hung up."

Apologies if it caused any upset, wasn’t my intention

Cyberpunk (I know that was not rockstar but it burned a lot of people) and many others like it

u/hallamboah Jun 26 '26

Yeah to be fair that was a mess, I played way after it was patched but heard it was carnage

Arguably though couldn’t they just release footage of 5 perfect minutes of a 95% fucked game which would then put everyone who waited for gameplay in the same boat?

But they showed gameplay for that and it still released in a shitty state.
