Okay, I admit I was wrong and only said those things because I was jealous of your strategic genius. Can you elaborate on your idea to ~~tank the value of TTWO and give leakers unilateral control of the release schedule of Rockstar's biggest product in 13 years~~ bring these leakers to heel?

My rationale was that the leakers were frustrated with GTA 6 taking so long to come out, so delaying the game might make them more frustrated and hurt their cause.

Of course, it is certainly likely that I am wrong and these leakers are just leaking stuff for fun or something.

No. iIRC the leaker is pissed off at gratuitous microtransactions, live service slop and other AAA shenanigans

I see. I am not sure how this will help!

I've never been very much into GTA, I played GTA 5 a couple of times and was actually underwhelmed. I am saving for my first console and am more excited to get RDR2 and the new Lego Skylines game than GTA 6.

The leaker threatened to continue leaking stuff unless Rockstar promised to cut back on the crap and act in gamer's best interests.
