Snaith decided to release “You Can Do It” as a stand-alone single, something he’d rarely done in the past.

The accompanying music video, inspired by the 1986 Disney movie “ Flight of the Navigator,” features dozens of adorable dogs chasing frisbees in slow motion, a visual that manages to heighten the song’s dizzying buoyancy. Built around a rapidly-sequenced vocal sample, a simple chord progression and a house beat, the track’s second half blossoms into a thrilling crescendo of unabashed optimism. The first taste of that inspiration is “You Can Do It,” an almost absurdly exuberant Caribou track that arrived in the summer, just as parts of the world began to emerge from the stupor of a devastating third wave. “Every day, it was like: ‘My sister got vaccinated! My parents are vaccinated! Somebody else got vaccinated! … It’s coming!’” Holed up in his basement studio, Snaith - better known by the moniker Caribou - started writing new music that he says was “literally made off the rush of vaccines starting to roll out.” It’s just insane, and so inspiring to me.” “And suddenly there’s this amazing feat of turning around a bunch of super highly effective vaccines in less than a year. “As a former math guy (Snaith has a Ph.D in mathematics), right from the beginning I thought: the only thing that’s going to get us out of this is science,” he told the Star. But for GTA V, this was the organic thing that came up, these were the characters what would display the themes we wanted to think about.Last spring, amid an endless string of lockdowns and widespread misery, Dan Snaith latched on to a glimmer of hope on the horizon. It didn't feel natural for this game but definitely for the right game in the future - with the right themes, it could be fantastic. We just haven't found the right game for it yet, but it's one of the things that we always think about. "In the future, could we do a game with a lead female character? Of course. This character set is just what came to us: it wasn't, 'we've got X and Y so we need Z,' we weren't trying to do it off a checklist - I don't think that will ever give you something that's believable or engaging.
"That's not to say that we couldn't or we wouldn't. "We didn't really think about it this time," he explained. ĭan Houser was also asked about whether Rockstar considered including a playable female character in GTA V's campaign, which features three male characters.

The city was used at the setting for a pair of expansions back in the GTA series' 2D days: Grand Theft Auto: London 1969, which used the original GTA's engine, was released in 1999 on PC and PlayStation, and was followed shortly thereafter by the free release London 1961 on PC. Grand Theft Auto fan Sengin created this concept map featuring San Andreas, Vice City and Liberty City (and some country-side to boot).ĭan Houser, along with brother Sam, the two founders of Rockstar, are originally from London. What about a map based on the whole United States? Although the concept may seem far from fruition, games like The Crew have proven that it can be done on this current generation of consoles. Miami in the 1980’s is so iconic it would feel strange to revisit the city in a different time period.”. However Vice City, perhaps more than any other GTA game, was as much about the era as the setting. There are a few references to the city in our current-gen GTAs so it is part of that HD universe, and it is certainly somewhere we would love to revisit. On the subject of Vice City returning as a future setting, Benzies said “it is always a possibility.
Due to console limitations and resource devotion, only Los Santos and Blaine have been covered, but fans have shown an interest in other San Andreas cities, as depicted by GTA 6 fan website. Some fans speculate on the belief that Rockstar could return to San Fierro and Las Venturas (one or both) to complete the remaining territories not found in Grand Theft Auto V.
