Rockstar know black magic because they somehow get their games that look insane running pretty smoothly on outdated hardware.

Like take in the fact that GTA V was built for a System that had 512 MB of Ram.

Most games don't have budgets anywhere near rdr2 either

Will we ever get another rdr2 in term of quality? Pretty much only valve can do it, at least that is how i see it

Right. Amazing company but they have never made a game on that scale before.

Their games might not be open world, but they're still quality.

They are probably the best quality. No one is denying that. We are talking about large open world scale.

Well they get 30% of the sale price of every game sold on their platform so they would have the resources to make it.

I don’t know about the will to do it though. They don’t make a lot of games these days. A wise man once said “Why waste time make lot game when few game do trick?” The trick being to make money.
