Episode notes
Single-Player Lore Makes A Living Metaverse
- GTA's single-player story gives online worlds lore and depth that social VR lacks.
- That narrative backbone is what makes GTA closer to a functioning "metaverse" than barren chat-room-style platforms.
Delay To Protect Multiplayer Scalability
- Rockstar delayed GTA VI to perfect massively concurrent multiplayer and avoid crippling launch-day server failures.
- They prioritized stable online infrastructure over rushing release because worst-case server failures damage the game's reputation.
Compare Trailer Views Within Genre
- Watch engagement metrics like 24-hour views but remember genre differences skew comparisons.
- Compare trailers to similar non-music releases to avoid misleading conclusions about performance.
