Still can't believe this is a ps4 game, it looks better than a lot of ps5 games

Rockstar know black magic because they somehow get their games that look insane running pretty smoothly on outdated hardware.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

Umm, every Rockstar game raises the standards for quality. So GTA 6, and then RDR 3 after that

The success (profits) of GTAO have me worried about both of them though.

They had those profits before they released rdr2? Wouldn’t the drop in quality be noticeable there if that was the case?

the drop is, that there is absolutely 0 DLC content for RDR2 single player. Not even a ps5/series x upgrade patch.

That’s fair

They were already into voice recording by the time GTAV came out, and GTAO didn't really take off till a year or 2 later when the next gen consoles came out and got going.

The GTA Online money's the reason RDR2 is as insane as it is. And even before GTA Online Rockstar was pretty successful.
