In fairness, their first trailers for the past 2 GTA games haven't been gameplay, so I assume they're just keeping with that pattern. And also those trailers did look similar to the final game, not exact but I don't think it's much of a stretch to expect GTA VI to look this good on max settings.

Framerate on the other hand, maybe to look this good it'll have to be 30 which won't be nice

Based on how late into the console Gen it is releasing wouldn't be surprised if their strategy is 30 fps and then selling a 60+ fps version remaster for next Gen consoles, and then 18 months later a PC version.

It's the mocap/animations. Every character in every scene in the trailer is fully mocapped. Crowds dancing in sync together at a club, reacting to eachother on the beach, parking on a busy street and exiting cars. I'm sure some of it is in the game, in scripted encounters. Probably not random sandbox gameplay people think of when they think GTA

Yeah, the video is 30fps, and seems to be captured at 1440p given the stair-stepping on some of the surfaces. Though that's reading quite a bit into a short clip, so we'll see.
