GTA 5 could be a step toward an “organic living soap opera”- Rockstar

Rockstar talks about the three characters system

Posted By | On 21st, Nov. 2012

Rockstar Games’ vice president, Dan Houser is very confident about GTA 5, and especially the three-character mechanic the game is introducing. It is truly something we’ve never seen before, and if Rockstar North pulls it off properly, it could turn into something special.

Dan Houser thinks so too. He believes this could be a step towards a sort of “organic living soap opera”.

He said while speaking with The Guardian: “This game, if we get it right, will be a step toward some kind of organic living soap opera. You have these three characters and they’re all living when you’re not with them. What that means, we don’t really know yet, we’re only getting it working for the first time. But it feels to us something powerful.”

He also talked about the GTA Hot Coffee controversy. Read the full report on that here.
