Lucia seems really isolated compared to Jason, anyone else notice?
Rewatching the trailers and it hit me: we never really see Lucia hanging out with anyone besides Jason. She's either solo or with him. The only other people she interacts with are that tattoo artist NPC and the nightclub guy, who could easily just be one of Jason's friends.
Meanwhile Jason's got a whole crew. Cal, Dre, Brian, Brian's wife Lori. He feels like a guy who's been in Vice City for a while, got his people. Lucia just feels... alone. Like she doesn't have her own circle at all.
Could be intentional. Maybe she's new to the area, or her past burned all her bridges. The ankle monitor in the first trailer already hinted she's not exactly free. If Jason's her only real connection, that's a lot of pressure on that relationship. And we all know how GTA relationships usually go.
I'm not saying it's a red flag, but it's definitely a choice by Rockstar. Makes me wonder if her isolation is gonna be a big part of her story. Like she's clinging to Jason because he's all she's got, and that's gonna blow up somehow.

It's a solid read. Their marketing loves letting fans fill the gaps.
I keep thinking about where on the map each of them actually operates (map geography brain, sorry). In GTA V you had Trevor way up north in Blaine County while Franklin's people were all in south Los Santos. It gave everyone their own territory.
With Lucia, I'm betting she's tied to some specific corner of Leonida (maybe Port Gellhorn up northwest, or somewhere in the Grassrivers) while Jason's crew runs Vice City proper. That physical distance from the city's social hubs would explain the isolation better than just story drama. (And yeah, the ankle monitor practically screams "stay inside this zone.")
Jason's got the local network. Lucia's the outsider trying to crack into the map's power centers. Sounds like classic Rockstar territory design to me.
Got a take on this?
