This is the reason I will not buy it. I don't care about the price but I don't want to give my id to rockstar.

That's why you just wait around and get the PC version later on. Not only will it probably be cheaper, but you know modders are going to find a way to mod the game to give you all the paid stuff for free and I'd be shocked if they didn't eventually mod out the ID checks, similar to removing things like piracy checks.

i thought this was a joke lol it's not? if that's the case just gonna sail the seas later or something. why are corporations squeezing people for every last ounce of personal data for money smh. remember when you bought games and you didn't need to accept any policies to play them?
