Rockstar harvested the fukk outta GTA5. It's rare to have a game span that many consoles while still bringing in millions per year.
I suspect GTA5 and RDR2 success has made them fat and happy BUT ALSO scared. When you make masterpiece games, it's difficult to top it. Look at how critically acclaimed Witcher 3 was...same studio created Cyberpunk...and saw their rep take a MASSIVE hit. Another fukk up and CD Projekt Red might be done.
Rockstar has more built in social/financial capital but the pressure of essentially trying to create another damn near perfect game is real. It's like knowing you got some hard shyt to do but you'd rather stay in bed and relax.

in retrospect I can see it the same way that Oregon Trail was popular even though it was set way back when, but i still can wrap my head around all Red Dead Redemption has to offer.
