    GTA VI / GTA 6: New player preparation: why it matters for keeping speculation useful - for newcomers - veteran player angle

    New player preparation is exactly the kind of topic that can be useful or messy depending on how people frame it. I would keep the thread grounded: what is confirmed, what is a reasonable guess, what is just recycled rumor, and what could mislead new players. Speculation is fine; pretending...
