it’s just a straight-up fact that games ARE more complex now than they used to be, you can recreate og DOOM in just a few weeks, but RDR2, a game that had a ready engine, and a lot of assets was already in development while the first RDR wasn’t out yet, that’s 8 years of straight up development

Pre-alpha build. After more than a decade.
If Star Citizen is a person it would be starting junior high/middle school now.
