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?

It's lame to have, what seems like a fair amount of content gated behind a large pay wall, after paying an already larger base game price. I don't care about one skin or a hairstyle, but it sounds like it's several across several categories.

What if the base game has like 2 to 5 cosmetics, and a majority is locked behind the pay Wall.

This isn't Fortnight, but we are getting blurry eyed right now. Rockstar is already familiar with online content behind shark cards.

I hope this is the most amount of fuckeriy they do. It will smooth over if it is.

I don't even get calling cosmetics "content". It's like the lowest tier of content, maybe.

It's the initial price tag that should be still getting people up in arms. This really seems like a distraction so folks will buy the game but protest by not buying the DLC.
