Speaking in a recent interview with podcaster Lex Fridman, Houser, who also has writing credits on almost all grand theft car game, shared his opinion on not being part of the long-awaited GTA 6 and any potential Red Dead Redemption sequel having left the company.
The developer agreed it would be bittersweet, but he’s also happy to do other things at his own studio, Absurd Ventures.
“Of course, letting go of something that I worked on in one form or another for about 20-odd years, and wrote about them for the last 10 or 11 that came out, wrote them all, or you know, the head writer on all of them, whatever it was… letting that go is a big change. And sad in a way,” Houser said.
