Very little news from a very little man.
Schreier is hardly ever wrong
Dunno if this is /s, but how can he be 'wrong'? There's nothing of substance here. The usual 'crunch crying' for most of the article, which Rockstar has failed to comment on and we have to trust his disgruntled anonymous sources, most of whom have left. What's actually committed to here?
GTA VI will be a moderate sized game - but still a large game
GTA VI will get patches and updates over time
GTA VI is still early in development
Despite this article and what I've just told you about crunch changing we won't know until crunch time comes to ship the game. Despite it being much more modertaely large, and having patches after release ⁉
Phones were locked away during QA testing - I wonder if that's because every phone has a camera......and why Rockstar had a good record with leaks
Well fuck me. Stop the presses, this guy has his finger on the exact pulse. So many specifics, so many! Read it back and determine what's actually been committed to. What facts, timelines, timescales, corrobative events beyond a 'source'? It's like when you'd come in on Monday to school and have to write what you'd been up to at the weekend and filled the gaps in pure shite.
What is 'moderate' - where is the context?
How will these patches and updates be different to RDR2 and GTA VI? How will they differ from other AAA games?
How early in development? Months, Years?
The guy is a charlatan. Do not mistake insight for being a megaphone for certain 'types' of employees. Let's see him do exactly the same as he did to ND when GTA VI ships. It's clear he speaks to the melodramatic Jonathan Coopers of this world

Just goes to show that while sonys first party maybe on top now, it is far from guaranteed that sonys first party will remain the best. Full series:
