“[N]o one on the Take-Two management team will ever opine on how a game should look, feel, or play,”Worosz toldGame Informer. “No one’s ever going to tell the people in the studios that we’ve partnered with what a game should look like. That’s for the team on the ground working on that game every day.”

I sincerely hope this works out for everyone involved. Fingers crossed.
