This is why I’m quite pessimistic about GTA6; it’s been 11 years since GTA5 was first released on the PS3 and Xbox360! A lot of people forget that an entire console generation passed without a new entry into the franchise.
The median turnover at games companies is significantly lower than 11 years, and even Dan Howser and Lazlow Jones have left Rockstar in the interim.
The likelihood that it will live up to player expectations, given how heavily Take2 have milked the hell out of Online via Shark Cards, is woefully low.
But I guess that’s the good part of being a pessimist; you’re either proven correct - or pleasantly surprised!
“From a studio with the same name as the studio that brought you…”
Or, the private-equity shell company that bought the name of the original studio from the company that bought out the company that bought them and shut them down 17 years ago.
Knowing what private equity buyouts happened for products recently would actually be super helpful while shopping for pretty much any product.
Then theres back 4 blood with 6 or 7 of the original 190 people from Left 4 Dead, but they still claimed to be the same people who made it.
Have you played B4B? I just learned about it from your comment but it looks good!
Follow the companies those developers are now instead their former companies.
