Mission freedom only matters if it changes normal play, not just one scripted mission.
The strongest GTA systems are the ones players notice by accident: an NPC reacting differently, a police chase taking a new turn, a damaged car changing the escape, or a small choice creating a story nobody planned.
The practical questions:
- whether it produces stories players can retell
- how the system behaves when the player is not following a mission
- whether it creates consequences without becoming annoying
Коротко по-русски: В геймплее важны системы, которые работают не только в миссиях. Если мир реагирует на действия игрока сам по себе, GTA VI будет ощущаться намного живее.
So I would put the question this way: What visual detail would tell you the most about mission freedom? Where do you agree or disagree? What economy mistake should GTA VI avoid?
