It is a AAA game. It stopped being an indie when Take Two bought it from Squad.

Why are we defending publishers and letting them get away with using this term this way? The term should be earned for its content and quality. AAA should not mean “large studio”.

they’re right though. it has nothing to do with “defending” anyone, that’s just what AAA means.

What other industry uses the term that way? Every other industry is quality. AAA to refer to size…. Right….
I know that’s how the term is used, it’s just fucking wrong when every other industry uses it differently……

What are you talking about? The “AAA” classification has always been a measure of corporate involvement and budget, not of quality. If you think that being large in scale and having good production quality is what makes “AAA” games, you’re dead wrong.

What other insert uses it that way? Every other industry is quality, not size. Don’t let them get away with this shit.

I always thought AAA just meant they have a lot of money, like how cod games are AAA because of the budget but are still terrible, not as an indicator of quality
