What if Cottonmouth and Gloriana are the second city we've been hoping for?

Been staring at that community map Yanis put together and I can't shake the feeling we're missing something up north. Vice City's down in the southeast corner, the Keys stretch out below it, Grassrivers and Port Gellhorn fill in the middle, but past Mount Kalaga? Nothing but question marks.

I know it's been ages since we got more than one proper city in a GTA. V gave us Los Santos and a whole lot of countryside, and I remember how many people were bummed we never got San Fierro or Las Venturas. So I started messing around with the map, and what if Rockstar's hiding Cottonmouth up there?

Cottonmouth's from Manhunt 2, a grimy southern city based on Atlanta, Charleston, maybe a little New Orleans. It's already in the Rockstar universe, even if they only ever named it on a manhole cover. Bringing it back as a second major hub would balance the map perfectly. Vice City in the south, Cottonmouth in the north, with the Gloriana region bridging them.

And Gloriana's not just wishful thinking. Those license plates in the screenshots feel deliberate. Rockstar doesn't throw stuff like that in by accident. If Gloriana's a state or a county, maybe Cottonmouth is its biggest city. That'd give us a proper northern anchor, something GTA V never had.

I'm not saying it's confirmed or anything, but the map layout almost begs for it. Mount Kalaga can't just be a dead end. What do you think, is there room for a second city, or are we setting ourselves up for disappointment again?

Mount Kalaga being a hard stop feels like bad geography for a story about escape. If Cottonmouth's up there, the northern highway finally has a destination that matters. But one city with real depth beats two that feel like backlots. I'm not sure the map's big enough for two leads and two cities.
