Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser opens up on Bully 2: "You just can't do all the projects you want"
Rockstar co-founder Dan Houser has opened up on why we never received a follow-up to 2006’s Bully.
Talking to IGN at LA Comic Con, House was asked why he never returned to Jimmy’s life despite Bully’s popularity and critical acclaim, and his response was both candid and probably a little frustrating for those who’d been patiently waiting for Bully 2, as he simply attributed it to “bandwidth issues”.
“I think it was just bandwidth issues,” Houser admitted (thanks, InsiderGaming). “You know, if you’ve got a small lead creative team, and a small senior leadership crew, you just can’t do all the projects you want.
“And you know, we certainly– how we’re structured at [Houser’s current studio] Absurd [Ventures], we’re doing two projects with a fairly small team, and it’s really trying to think through that. How can we do that and keep them both moving?”
