Consequence system

Rockstar’s stated answer to Red Dead Redemption 2’s Honor system — context-aware rather than a single good/bad slider. The on-screen icon is the Crime Report Symbol.

Police

Six stars, and a rework underneath: police track six independent descriptors — face, clothes, crew, car, CCTV and gun — with hollow stars for a partial identification.

Economy

Three separate pots — bank account, cash, and duffel bag. Dirty cash must go through a fence, and deposits are ATM-only.

Player state

Health, Stamina and Focus, shown top-left. A San Andreas-style attribute layer sits underneath, with per-activity buffs.

Vehicles

Vehicles use fuel and electric vehicles recharge. Gas stations have a menu with separate refuel and repair prices.

Free-roam activity

A playable free-roam activity that feeds the attribute layer — playing it raises Focus.
