For GTA VI Online, anti-griefing systems should be judged by what it does to a normal evening with friends.
It starts by admitting what we do not know yet, then looking at the details that would be hard to fake in the final game: how systems interact, how the world reacts, and whether long-term progression gives players something to do rather than something to argue about.
A good online system gives people options: public chaos when they want it, calmer sessions when they do not, fair payouts, crew identity, and activities that are fun before they become efficient.
Коротко по-русски: В онлайне важно не просто добавить больше контента. Нужны нормальные лобби, честная экономика, занятия для соло-игроков и команд, и меньше ощущения бесконечного гринда.
That is why I would rather discuss one concrete thing: What would make anti-griefing systems feel important rather than just interesting? Where is the line between fun speculation and misinformation?
