I never said they didnt. But PC can be modded and exploited much easier than consoles can, Which can impact their sales of blatant bullshit ripoff micro transactions.
Can impact, but likely not a huge one. Just like how most people playing Skyrim are playing without mods, most people playing GTA games aren't going to bother with mods and modded servers.
I'd rather mod myself game money than spend on MTX with T2.
And the majority of minimal tech literate gamers are nearly the same.
Doubt.
Edit to expand: I honestly don't think I would've played it if it wasn't for mods. The interface is so blatantly consoley and clunky that every action takes way more effort than it needs to.
