I suspect these are the best selling games which released between 2020 and 2025. For instance, Breath of the Wild has sold about 33 million copies, over 10 million more than Tears of the Kingdom but was released in 2017.
In TA you could select a unit factory then issue move orders and set up patrol routes and then any units constructed by that factory would follow those orders. Also, if there was a unit executing a repeating move pattern, you could select it, hold shift and give it a new order. It would execute that order, then when done it would return to its original pattern.
Based on some comments in the article, it sounds like the guy is accusing Rockstar of financing a smear campaign. Maybe if they made a game that wasn't a straight GTA clone they wouldn't have to worry about something like that.
