== Company philosophy ==
In October 2011, Dan Houser told ''[[Famitsu]]'' that Rockstar Games was intentionally avoiding developing games in the [[first-person shooter]] genre, because "it is in our [[DNA]] to avoid doing what other companies are doing [...] the goalpoint of Rockstar is to have the players really feel what we're trying to do."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/113855-Rockstar-Make-Good-Games-and-the-Money-Will-Follow|title=Rockstar: Make Good Games and the Money Will Follow - The Escapist|author=|date=|website=www.escapistmagazine.com|access-date=January 2, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180103072638/http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/113855-Rockstar-Make-Good-Games-and-the-Money-Will-Follow|archive-date=January 3, 2018|dead-url=no|df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://gamerant.com/rockstar-games-avoiding-first-person-shooters/|title=Rockstar Games Purposefully Avoiding First Person Shooters|author=|date=October 27, 2011|website=Game Rant|access-date=March 11, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180907144705/https://gamerant.com/rockstar-games-avoiding-first-person-shooters/|archive-date=September 7, 2018|dead-url=no|df=mdy-all}}</ref> Houser went on to say "Our games up to now have been different from any genre that existed at the time; we made new genres by ourselves with games like the ''GTA'' series. We didn't rely on testimonials in a business textbook to do what we've done. [...] If we make the sort of games we want to play, then we believe people are going to buy them."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2011/10/26/rockstar-assures-gamers-that-the-studios-priority-is-doing-new-things/|title=Rockstar Assures Gamers that the Studio's Priority is "Doing New Things"|author=|date=October 26, 2011|website=PlayStation LifeStyle|access-date=March 11, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180816110123/http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2011/10/26/rockstar-assures-gamers-that-the-studios-priority-is-doing-new-things/|archive-date=August 16, 2018|dead-url=no|df=mdy-all}}</ref>
