I feel like a lot of devs could do what Rockstar does if given the budget and workforce. 

The things is Rockstar (almost) never fails, and they had a blockbuster title that they were smart enough to not destroy over time. That allows them to have almost unlimited budget for their games. A "normal" company would never release only one red dead redemption per generation. Only one GTA. A normal company would probably allow journalists/audience to make them change their game to cater for them.

It seems that somehow, although being a public company, they are allowed to do their own thing, at their own pace, which as consequence allowed them to have two huge blockbusters that generates so much money they can take as long as they want to develop and polish.

Image if we had only 1 or 2 assassins creed per generation, with a rockstar budget? Yet ubisoft decided to go on a different path.

Rockstar indeed in on a different league. Its a kind of AAAA tier or S tier.
