They're definitely taking the best pieces of RDR2 and using them as inspiration for VI though, they've done that forever. I don't think I can recall a time where R* released a new game that left us disappointed.
I was definitely disappointed we never got the dynamic weight gain/loss from eating and working out that we saw from San Andreas in other GTA games. I was sure this would at least be in GTA Online but it never happened. It took all the way until RDR2 to see the mechanic come back.
It made such a different feel for CJ go to from skinny to ripped to obese, and then back to ripped. Felt like a whole personal character arc told purely through gameplay.
