Ned Luke says anyone who thinks GTA 6 looks like GTA 5 is out of their mind

Caught the clip of Ned Luke on that Party Chat stream and he did not hold back. The guy who played Michael in GTA 5 was asked about the whole "GTA 6 just looks like GTA 5" take that's been floating around since the extended look dropped.
His response? "This looks nothing like Grand Theft Auto 5." Then he went further and said people who think that are out of their minds. He also joked that Michael's character model never looked that good, which is fair. GTA 5's models were great for 2013 but the extended look is on another level.
He even shouted out the jiggle physics, which I'm sure will be a whole discussion on its own.
I get why some people say it looks familiar. It's still a GTA game, open world, running from cops, all that. But the tech jump is pretty obvious. Digital Foundry called it the most visually advanced game they've seen. The map is supposedly 3x bigger than RDR2's. And the animation count is wild, over 600,000 compared to 55,000 in GTA 5 and 300,000 in RDR2.
So yeah, same formula, but calling it GTA 5 with a new coat of paint feels lazy. Ned Luke has zero reason to hype this up either, he's not in it.
Do you think the extended look actually looks like GTA 5, or is this just people being contrarian?
