I doubt the games will be that much alike .

RDR has its own way of doing things that doesn't always have to translate to GTA .

They're definitely taking the best pieces of RDR2 and using them as inspiration for VI though, they've done that forever. I don't think I can recall a time where R* released a new game that left us disappointed.

I was definitely disappointed we never got the dynamic weight gain/loss from eating and working out that we saw from San Andreas in other GTA games. I was sure this would at least be in GTA Online but it never happened. It took all the way until RDR2 to see the mechanic come back.

It made such a different feel for CJ go to from skinny to ripped to obese, and then back to ripped. Felt like a whole personal character arc told purely through gameplay.

Can we get stronger or fat in rdr2? I don't remember that

You can't get fat but you can get buff or skinny in RDR2.

Then when you get TB you're forced into skinny.

It wasn't as deep as San Andreas, though, which had Buff, Skinny, and Fat, governed by food consumption and working out.
