Rockstar founder Dan Houser recently spoke out in an interview and talked about a lot of things.Dan Houser is the chief screenwriter of all Rockstar games, including classics such as "GTA4" and "Red Dead Redemption 2".However, what we don't know is that behind these classic games are actually "true portrayals" of personal lives, and they have really integrated their souls into these games.It’s no wonder that yesterday some overseas players remembered old classic games. These games really have their own “soul”.

The tipster @SynthPotato tweeted that Dan Houser has indeed poured his personality, life experiences, and all his emotions into these works.The summary is as follows:
The story of GTA and "Red Dead Redemption" is actually a portrayal of Dan's own life:
The dark and depressing tone of "GTA4" stems from the loneliness and confusion Dan experienced as an immigrant struggling to survive in New York.At that time, Rockstar's future was uncertain due to the "Hot Coffee Incident".

The plot of Arthur's tuberculosis in "Red Dead Redemption 2" was inspired by Dan's grandfather - he was infected with tuberculosis before the advent of antibiotics, but ultimately survived.

The creation period of "Red Dead Redemption" happened to be when Dan's girlfriend (who later became his wife) was pregnant, so John's "father image" of taking responsibility for his family, his wife and children came from his real life.

"GTA: Vice City" came out of his love for the movies of the 1980s, the era when he grew up.The game was released only 16 years after the 1980s, so it wasn't the "nostalgia" that's common today, but more of a tribute to that era.
