To put it to perspective Star Citizen's Kickstarter started on 2012. GTA 5 released on 2013, and GTA 6 is supposed to be out in 2025. If it doesn't get delayed too significantly we will get 2 full GTA games before SC is released.

To put that in perspective, you just pretty much shower how developing GTA 6 has taken just as long, pretty much.

The release full games, so going from one release to the next measures basically the timeline of developing one game.
