GTA 6 is giving players a new way to shape protagonists Jason and Lucia beyond simply deciding how much destruction they cause thanks to the "Criminal Profile" system. Rockstar Games is introducing a Criminal Profile system that tracks how each character approaches crime, although it is not designed to work like Red Dead Redemption 2's Honor system. Instead of watching a meter constantly move between two extremes, GTA 6 assigns characters to specific named states based on their behavior.
The Criminal Profile system in GTA 6 includes various classifications for how players approach crime. For example, if someone is very methodical and effective at store robberies and other crimes, then they'll likely earn the Professional classification. That changes if players tend to kill everyone, play it safe, and/or be as destructive as possible, with violent states including aggressive, Violent, and Psycho. As such, it's more detailed than a traditional morality system in that regard, and it goes to wild extremes. There is even another state beyond Psycho, where the Criminal Profile icon itself begins to crack and eventually shatters.
