Guide library
Eleven guides are staged and ready. Each publishes once every step can be checked in the shipped game.
Your first hours in Leonida — controls, map orientation, money basics and what to prioritise.
Ranked earning methods for the opening hours, measured and compared once verifiable.
Step-by-step routes with objective lists, gold-standard completion notes and failure points.
Once Rockstar publishes vehicle data, or we can measure it in the shipped game, THE VI will document handling, speed and class comparisons across land, sea and air.
If GTA VI exposes weapon statistics, THE VI will document damage, range, recoil and loadout choices — measured, not guessed.
If GTA VI includes purchasable properties or businesses, THE VI will document their costs, income and payback using verified in-game data.

The map is live now. Everything else is grouped by how usable it actually is — no waiting lists, no fake progress.
