My hopes for Grand Theft Auto 6, I worry, are quite different from Rockstar's own ambitions. I don't like Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. I think it's directionless, too open, and too silly. Similarly, I don't enjoy anything about (the single-player) of Grand Theft Auto 5. GTA 3, Vice City, and more broadly Red Dead Redemption 2 are more my preference. I prefer when Rockstar is contained and somber, and willing to sacrifice player freedom in exchange for a more coherent plot. Perhaps it was before its time. Perhaps it was too different. Nevertheless, the best GTA game is now just $6.
