That’s because Rockstar has an advertising budget that would put the GDP of most countries to shame, and they’re not afraid to swing it around after the large and extended success of GTAV.
I expect we’ll see the same for Elder Scrolls VI as well, soonish.
Yeah, it looks so generic. I don’t understand what there even is to report about.

“I’m into indie.”
It’s been interesting to watch go by as someone without a horse in the race. I’ve never had any interest in GTA games.
I’ve never enjoyed them as whole properties, but as vehicles for dialogue, they’re excellent. However, God of war did it far closer to my tastes as I actually enjoy the soulslike gameplay loop, where I do not enjoy early 2000s shooters given new paint.
You read gaming media? I finally stopped when RPS was bought out
RPS is probably still one of the best sources of gaming news. They have lots of nice indie recommendations and I often find some gems I’d have missed.
Also I like most of their writing styles. And they click bait a lot less.

Use that money on you, Rockstar has plenty
For small indie games: buy, don’t pirate.
