GTA 6 box art feels muted and lacking personality

Rockstar revealed the GTA 6 box art ahead of the game's Nov. 19 release, and while the reveal mainly served as a way to announce pre-orders start soon, the art itself is oddly muted and lacking in personality. The cover continues the series' collage tradition, mixing a handful of scenes and teases: a helicopter, Lucia and Jason, a man on a bike, a woman in a bikini bottom and T-shirt (probably not Lucia unless she gets a lower-lip piercing), maybe one of the Real Dimez with longer hair, Boobie Ike, an alligator, a car, a motorboat with a flamingo overhead, and Raul Batista hoisting an automatic rifle.

All of it is presented in a fairly sauceless way, with images bearing less personality than the cast list on the game's official site. The familiar vehicle squares are there, but the lack of stylistic detail irks—the chopper in the upper left and the bike in the upper right echo GTA 4 and GTA 5, the helicopter even has pontoons, and the gator feels a bit meh (friend, it's Florida).
