This one has a female protagonist, so I look forward to not being able to differentiate between legitimate criticism about the game, and reviews from man-children that are mad that women exist.

And then if the single player experience bombs, I also look forward to Rockstar pointing to the female protagonist as the reason, and not because they're pouring all their resources into micro transactions.

I personally feel like it will be pretty easy to recognize whether different pieces of criticism are outright misogynistic, borderline, or not misogynistic.

I do think that if the story is getting called "too woke" and resembles Veilguard or Concord in tone, that's actually legitimate criticism, separate from outright misogyny.
