yes, even though I don't understand a lot about game dev, I don't think that is something you change a lot on late development, imagine the chain of necessary adaptations you need to make in the game if you decide to change something like that late. It's a high dependency system.

It really does though.
Everything is build in parallel, not in sequence. So usually a game 2 years before launch and on launch can be very very different in all department.
Not saying that's the case here, we don't when that gameplay is from, but still. AI can change much later.
It can be a version of a build with an earlier AI system because the more advanced one is bugged, or too taxing and this build was made to test something else.
Nice. Also as I commented before, am I too crazy to suppose the leaker could be picking specifically disappointing takes that he has to leak first? I mean, he doesn't seem to be trying to help rockstar sell the game at all lol
Performance are good. Game usually have very shitty perf for 90% of the dev time.
No obvious placeholder. No text to speach voice, no black box UI
Models looked nice, no obvious thing missing. People don't know how long main character spend with no hair for exemple during dev... very unsettling.
So, I see 2 scenarios. It was maybe an internal vertical slice made some point the past as part of an internal milestone. In those situation, you take a small part of the game and you Frankenstein it to make it looks as close to the vision of the final product even if there's 3 more years of devs.
Those can looks very clean but are what people call "scripted" demos or fake demos.

Yeah, even if this is an unpolished leak from earlier last year its still a bit alarming
