Grand Theft Auto 6 is arguably the most anticipated video game in the world, even beyond the practically abandoned Half-Life 3 that Valve never seems to write off officially. It's numbered as the sixth entry, but the series heritage spreads further than five games. GTA is almost 26 years old, with most of its games gaining the status of blockbuster megahits.
The technology advanced with each sequel, and the games grew in scope and usually in scale. Spending years with these open-world race 'n' chase simulators from one of my first-ever PC games back in 1997 to the monstrous cash cow that is GTA Online, for some reason, I barely feel a spot of excitement for the recent tease of an upcoming announcement about GTA6. So, what changed: its developers, the industry, or myself?
