00:00Out of all the Rockstar Games, which one do you think was particularly difficult to make?
00:05If you guessed Red Dead Redemption 2, then you're spot on. Rockstar Games co-founder Dan Houser
00:11recently said that Red Dead 2 was an arduous, unfun project for Rockstar Games. He explained that
00:18with Red Dead 2 we were behind schedule, we were over budget so much I didn't want to think about
00:23it and you're making a game about a cowboy dying of tuberculosis and the game's not coming together.
00:31Houser doesn't call out any names, but the game's tough dev cycle and tougher subject matter apparently
00:36raised a few eyebrows during that phase. He said, turns out a lot of people doubt you at that moment.
00:42You know, it's not that fun, so I think that was a lot of pressure. Despite a difficult eight-year
00:48journey to get there, Red Dead Redemption 2 eventually became a wild, wild success,
00:54so at least all the hard work was worth it.
