The Legacy and Evolution of Rockstar Games: How One Studio Redefined Open-World Gaming

I grew up with an unhealthy obsession with the Grand Theft Auto series . The game wasn’t obviously meant for an 8-year-old, but it showed me the greatest gift: my parents wanting to give me happiness and comfort throughout my upbringing, even if it meant unknowingly handing me a game that was clearly meant for older audiences. But hey, it didn’t meddle with my behavior, alright? Playing San Andreas was one of my most endearing experiences, with countless playthroughs/save files.
