Anyone else planning to share the controller with their partner for GTA 6?

My wife and I already have our GTA 6 setup figured out. She's taking Lucia, I'm taking Jason, and we'll pass the controller back and forth depending on who's on screen. We did a trial run last month with a full GTA 5 playthrough. She handled Michael, I handled Franklin, and Trevor was basically a timeshare. It worked way better than I expected.

I keep seeing posts about couples where the girlfriend or wife doesn't want their guy playing GTA 6. Maybe this is a fix for some of those situations. Instead of one person hogging the console for weeks, you both get invested in the story. My wife got really into the Michael sections and I think she's more hyped for Lucia than I am for Jason at this point.

We're not doing separate saves or anything. One shared file, one shared run. It forces you to actually talk about what happened when you weren't holding the controller, which sounds small but made the GTA 5 run feel like a co-op game even though it isn't.

Is anyone else planning to share a save with their partner or significant other at launch? Or are you all doing separate playthroughs?
