Care about it? I haven't even played it!!
They gotta work on that ten-year load time.
They did.
Well, someone did.
You're a very small fraction of the audience, it shouldn't be surprising they focus on the majority who prefer online play as it adds a social element into an otherwise predictable and static environment.
I tried it briefly but I really couldn't get into it
If you're careful enough like myself to cheat billions of dollars and XP in to skip the pay to win grind without getting detected it can be a fun time killer. The Map is much more developed than the story mode, and the buisnesses/ heists are a blast.
People hate on GTA online, but it's really because it's all grindy to experience it all without feeling forced to buy shark cards. If you have infinite money then it essentially is another GTAs worth of impressive content. The vehicles alone have hours worth of customization.
That sounds even less appealing to me tbh. I'm happy enough with the single player / story, which as long as Rockstar puts time into for the original release, will be good.
