    I agree with the overall sentiment, but with a butt. If they plan on doing DLC to make the main story shorter, then the game is basically unfinished and you have to pay for the finished product. Now, that’s not always true. Sometimes there are good examples and I think most people agree on the DLCs for Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 are prime examples how to do it right. As long as the DLC is not at cost of the main game, I’m fine with it. But as you said, the main story should be long as it should and not longer.

    The main money maker will be probably GTA Online 2 and GTA 6 is just the drug to get into the world.

      Witcher 3 is actually a perfect example of what I mean. The original game is too damn long. Like so much so that I never even saw the critically-acclaimed DLC, because I was burnt out from the main game. Would have loved if the main game was shorter to give the DLC some more breathing room, but maybe that’s my own fault for chasing after too many question marks on the map.
