This is true, but they don't really care about that. They just see their profits soar off minimal work and stick to that formula. Its going to be this way for a very long time with them because it works

I wouldn't call it minimal work. The effort they put into their games is matched by nobody. I'd love if they set up a completely new and separate studio to work on games like bully 2, LA Noire 2 or whatever in between. 

minimal working meaning they have to work as little as possible on new content and just keep feeding their online for specific games. Less releases overall makes minimal work for them.

But wasn't that a small team kept to update GTA V while the main team were hard at work for years on RDR2?

Yet GoW and Horizon are still at 5m...

I did find that odd. Like something wasn't adding up to me there.

Well deserved. GTA V is a true masterpiece.
For me it's the second best in the series, behind San Andreas. Even though I continue flip-floping between the two for my best GTA game. Shame we couldnt get a GTA that pushes the base Xbox One and PS4 to their limit, though.

my favorite gta is gta vice city and gta 3, but san andreas and gta 5 are awesome too! I want a GTA-Collection for PS4!

It might still come to PS4.

They put huge effort into their games. Updates aside, GTA 5 and RDR2 single player were massive projects. The scale of it is undeniable. Even the graphics alone would have required serious amounts of effort. There is also the world details, the huge voice actor cast, the simulation aspects which were made to be as real as possible.

Rockstar is the only major open world third party publisher to push efforts into their games.

God of War sold 5 million in a month. Horizon sold 7.6 million in a year. I don't know where you're getting these sales...oh, VGChartz? These are just the retail sales, and they aren't even that accurate.

What’s the record for a title hitting 10 million in Vgchartz numbers?

Wouldn’t the masterpiece be the #1 work instead of the #2?



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Theyre both materpieces.same with 3 and Vice City.



Bet with Intrinsic:

The Switch will outsell 3DS (based on VGchartz numbers), according to me, while Intrinsic thinks the opposite will hold true. One month avatar control for the loser's avatar.

VGChartz officially shifted from its Physical Only tracking, that's why my post was made.

And seems like you missed the point, we were not agreeing with some numbers, we were contesting them exactly because of the data we had, which you pointed too.

Why does it look like you are quoting me even though I know I never write that 2nd part lol.
