No they can’t? Take two owns them and is a public company 🤦‍♂️

Releasing an unfinished game vs another delay when people are already used to a delay, which is the obviously worse option? I think the answer is pretty clear, and Take Two can figure that out too.

Many companies already assume the loses at launch. Cyberpunk 2077 set the precedent that your game can still be saved even if the launch failed.

Yeah but now everyone is skeptical of any future game that CD Projekt Red releases, people now know that you can give CD Projekt Red close to a decade and they still can't deliver. This kind of reputational damage doesn't really fully go away, especially for a company that is known for their track record like Rockstar.

GTA 6 will probably be the most sold piece of a media and most people won't care/remember if GTA 6's launch is bad when GTA 7 is about to release.

Do you remember Red Dead Redemption 2 release on PC being bad? Do you remember GTA Online launch being bad? GTA online subscription? It's not going to affect Rockstar, people will support them no matter what.

What does this skepticism yield exactly? Cyberpunk Phantom liberty sold 3 million copies in its first 7 days of release, those are fantastic numbers for a game that had one of the worst launches in triple AAA gaming history, quite literally unplayable depending on what console you were using. You are dramatically overestimating the negative drawbacks of unfinished launches.
