I’ll never understand why they tried to make a game that would be instantly compared to GTA. Just set themselves up for failure when they could have tried something different and maybe made something good.
You’re completely right. It sounds from the article like they flailed around a lot trying to figure out what that could be before settling for “do what you know.”
A huge amount of time and energy wasted without a clear vision, and then they fell into the trap of trying to chase the success of other games.
