…and that’s when I’ll stop playing Rockstar games lol
It makes no sense beyond ravenous greed. Their SP games sell a bajillion copies each. GTA4 & 5 made their money back within an hour of release! That’s the $100M+ to make it and double that to advertise it. Really consider that for a second: each sale after the first hour of release was pure profit.
That’s something that few games have the privilege of saying. COD for a while was the same on each release, I’m sure a few others but it’s incredibly rare for a title that costs so much.
To want more just to want more is wrong BUT THERE IS A REASON! It’s the same thing that kills all good game devs and that’s being a publicly traded entity. Billion dollar profits aren’t enough because you have investors and investors want more so you gotta make more and making art purely for profit will destroy your art. 100% of the time.
This is what brought down EA and so many companies before it. If Take Two goes down this road they’ll become no different than them.
