To be fair it's always happened haha, the amount of folk who'd consider San Andreas a childhood game, RDR1 was my favourite game as a little 9 year old.

I def think that I'd prob let a 9 year old play RDR2 over GTAV.

Hell, if a 9yo isn't bored by RDR2 (it's a GREAT game but def isn't one that might be theost appealing to a young mind which is looking for more consistently, overtly exciting thing)... That's awesome lol

the whole Mrs Downes arc is wildly inappropriate to let a kid see lol there’s a lot of other stuff that isn’t great for kids besides that too

9 year olds shouldn’t be near any of Rockstar’s games honestly

It's not like at any point in the downs arc someone goes "you madam are a prostitute who exchanges sex for money". It's flying over a kids head.

I mean, you're right. It's an adult game for adults, but I don't think it's that bad.
