10 Things GTA 6 Can Learn From Red Dead Redemption 2

2. Deep Customisation Is A Must

Even for the high standards of a Rockstar game, RDR2 has an absolute ton of customisation options available to the player, especially as it pertains to your clothing (and how you wear it) and also your choice of head and facial hair (which will even grow in "real time" as you progress through the game).

That's not to forget the player's ability to shape the camp to their own preferences by investing in different things, and of course, the surprisingly comprehensive weapon customisation (for both practical and aesthetic purposes).

It's a fine blueprint moving forward for the developer, in that it gives the player options but also doesn't force a ton of soul-sucking busy-work on them (though the game certainly has that in other areas). If GTA 6 is any less customisable than RDR2, it's going to be hugely disappointing.
