I think you've had very little experience with these games. That's not comparable at all.
GTA V takes a lot of time to earn money. Most activities wont reward you enough while in Breakpoint you get better gear and more money with every activity. GTA V Online is mostly PvP (car races, fights, missions, events) and it makes a huge difference what kind of equipment you have. For example with a $7 million military jet you can do a lot with ease.
Explosives, rocket launcher ammunition, air defence missiles all cost a lot of money. The usage of this explosive stuff would cost so much money to use I would hardly be able to keep up with the money I earned. Protection like armor, special wheels, protective vests. Everything costs money.
In addition there are many events where it depends on speed and armouring. What is the fastest and safest way to get ahead? With cars, helicopters or jets for multiple million $ each. For cars you pay another $3 million into the revaluation in the garage. In comparison to normal vehicles they have no disadvantages. Then always a new and better vehicle comes out what you have to have in order to keep up with it.
Then you could buy expensive companies that would earn you even more money. The rich get even richer. You probably have to invest over thousand hours to keep up.
Why seriously compare this to Breakpoint where the values of the equipment are normalized? Breakpoint, Battlefront 2 etc. are a joke against GTA V Online.
GTA V Online was generally very cheater-infested. Invincible or immortal players that could kill anyone at the push of a key button, hundreds of cops are suddenly spawning next to you etc. The cheaters could even crash your game if they wanted. If RockStar wants to earn money on the PC in GTA V Online they have to try harder. For me it was almost impossible not to find any cheaters.
There's Pay to Win in some games. Just because it looks like it on paper it doesn't have to be in reality. It depends on the effects for the specific game.
