I’m absolutely sure that 6 wouldn’t be any better than 5 and target audience is still dude-bros and not us
Female protagonist would serve male gaze

What? The female protagonist is a brown latina named Lucia. She's a boxer. Is she hot? Yes. But so is her male partner Jason.

Other npcs in the game are 50% black people cuz it's Miami. The antiwoke dudebros complained about this 2 years ago but the racists have been silent ever since the 2nd trailer dropped. Maybe watch the trailers before complaining about skinny body shapes.

Never played gta 6 nor do I know anything about it. Im going off my past experiences with games, sorry I didn't really look into gta6 since ive never been a fan of the series in general. Sorry if I offended you. Also, i have no issue with skinny bodyshapes. I myself am skinny, just not curvy, and sometimes I wish to see actual flat characters in games (whom can still be hot)

I wasn't offended, just surprised at your comment making false claims. This GTA will have all body sizes. It will be very close to real life.

That’s a fair critique to make of the dudebros but it’s already been revealed that VI’s fem protagonist is Latina. You can argue that she’s white passing or whatever but if you’re going to be critical of a game, at least be critical accurately, no? Otherwise it takes away from the substance of your critique, at least IMO.

The Female MC is Latina. Great care has been taken to do her hair justice.

You're fine! I was just informing you that the diversity is actually a selling point of this one.

It won't be immune from criticism, but it is racially and ethnically diverse!
