Beach districts could be more than scenery if Rockstar uses it to change the pace of Leonida.
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 the feeling of distance gives players something to do rather than something to argue about.
For example, I would want places to behave differently depending on time, weather, traffic, money, police presence, and what kind of people are around. A beach district, a swamp road, and a dense Vice City block should not feel like the same space with different textures.
Русский вывод: По карте GTA VI главный вопрос не в размере. Важно, чтобы районы отличались ритмом, поведением людей, погодой, трафиком, активностями и причинами возвращаться туда снова.
That is why I would rather discuss one concrete thing: Which group of players would care about beach districts the most? What would be the next useful confirmation? Would this create better player stories?
