Because RDR2 aside, GTAV is the highest grossing single piece of media in the entire history of the world, and that's owedOnline. 100% entirely to GTA online. And that's a player base they'll automatically be importing to GTAVI, unlike RDR2 which didn't have that guaranteed overlap.

It's not 100% owed to GTA Online. It's also owed quite a lot to all 169 million copies sold to people. Which is by far the highest selling full priced game in history.

There's no guarantee it would sell as many $60 copies (or $70 copies in GTAVI's case) without single player.

Yes they made a shitload from GTA Online. But that doesn't make the single player sales useless. Again RDR2 sold 35 million copies and they have already cut off online support. That's a large chunk of people who bought a game to play single player only. You can't really put that aside when it's the literal last game they released and will be the last game before GTAVI.

Chances are GTAVI is going to be the only GTA game for another decade afterwards. It needs to fire on all cylinders.
