    As long as there seems to be no claims of it really running on the hardware rather than captured on it, the scenes could as well be prerendered. It’s not about thinking it looks too good for real time (it doesn’t). It’s just the cynicism towards trailers which don’t show any gameplay and especially long before the game is out.

      Its a healthy skepticism but historically speaking rockstar hasn’t toyed like that in the past. This trailer is in line with previous rockstar releases - they’ll rarely go full “gameplay mode” (camera behind the character), but still showing footage from the game engine.

      The leak three years ago, showing 2019 state, basically confirmed what gameplay looked like this is not far off.
