GMAT Club Tests' Official Explanation:




A. The sentence is grammatically wrong: two parallel verbs “have gained” and “are developing” are joined by a comma - a conjunction is required instead to make the sentence grammatically correct.
Since “characters” is inanimate, “who” cannot be used to refer to “characters”.

B. The word “since” is wrongly used. “Since” is used to depict a point of time in the past, not a period: example:
Correct: Since Wednesday…
Wrong: Since three days…

C. Verb “have gained” and present participle “developing” are wrongly used in parallel.

D. The word “since” is wrongly used. “Since” is used to depict a point of time in the past, not a period: example:
Correct: Since Wednesday…
Wrong: Since three days…
Since “characters” is inanimate, “who” cannot be used to refer to “characters”.

E. Correct. Having + past participle means that the person referred to have already done the action. “Having gained” is correctly used to indicate that the game designers have already gained experience.
Instead of “since”, “over” is correctly used to depict a period of time.

A. designers have gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years, are now developing characters who
"are now developing characters who" has no subject....incorrect

B. designers, gaining experience in 3D modeling since numerous years, are now developing characters, which
"since numerous years"...can't use since here .there's no particular time which we can define as starting point ..incorrect

C. designers have gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years and now developing characters that
parallelism error "have gained....and now developing" incorrect

D. designers gained experience in 3D modeling since numerous years and are now developing characters who
same error as B.also, "gained experience" distorts the meaning

E. designers, having gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years, are now developing characters that
IMO correct

Game designers have gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years, are now developing characters who are difficult to distinguish from real people.


A. designers have gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years, are now developing characters who

I do not see any grammatical issue with this option; However, meaning wise there is some miss- the two actions are not quite parallel IMO

B. designers, gaining experience in 3D modeling since numerous years, are now developing characters, which
The present participle does not give the right meaning as if designers were gaining experience at the time they were developing characters

C. designers have gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years and now developing characters that

Missing parallelism -there is change in verb i.e "have gained experience" and "are now developing" .. so it is better to use the main verb

D. designers gained experience in 3D modeling since numerous years and are now developing characters who

Verb issue - simple past is inappropriate IMO; With since we need " Have gained"

E. designers, having gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous years, are now developing characters that
Best in the lot- "having gained experience in 3D modeling over numerous year" modifies designers and connects well with meaning with the main verb i.e after gaining experience --are now developing ..

(E) for me
