The former Rockstar developer revealed another reason for the silence of the protagonist GTA 3
If you ever played the legendary game from Rockstar – Grand Theft Auto 3, then perhaps you wondered why the main character is silent. He did not utter a word, he simply fulfilled his duty in solemn silence, sowing chaos in Liberty City and never muttered something under his breath during the battle. But why?
At one time, Rockstar Games told the fans that the hero is not dumb at all – his cold -blooded silence is made so that the player is easier to associate himself with the main character. But it turned out that this is not the whole story.
This topic was affected by the former developer Rockstar, who recently conducted a blog dedicated to insider information. He closed this blog after opening some information and did not like Rockstar. But recently, answering the question on Twitter, this developer reported new information about why Claude was silent in GTA 3.
POBE VERMEY worked at Rockstar North from 1995 to 2009, creating games such as GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas and GTA IV. He spoke about many internal decisions, long -lost secrets and other unknown stories related to his work as a designer, developer and director in one of the most prolific studios Rockstar.
In his Twitter message, one of the users asked why Claude was silent throughout GTA 3. And then the vemea appeared to answer this question by writing:
At least partially this was due to the fact that we had to cut the corners. The recording department was already busy.
So that’s why the main character GTA 3 was silent all the time. This was done in order to save time and money and not overload the recording department. Years later it may seem strange that such an important thing as the voice of a protagonist was lost, but many games have achieved success without dialogues of the protagonist. And GTA 3 was really successful
