I don't think singling out Rockstar here is fair - I'm sure devs at all the AAA publishers are hate how what they create ends up due to corporate requirements. Here's looking at you Ubisoft, EA, Activision, Konami...
I know - I really didn't realise making Pachinko machines was a viable business, but I feel after all the business with Silent Hills and Kojima, that they still need their fair share of disapproval.
As for EA - Yeah, "a bit less awful", but I think SimCity showed that they really haven't changed too much, especially now we've seen what Colossal Order have done with Cities:Skylines
