Caught a small detail in the Port Gellhorn screenshots — NPCs and Jason biting their lip

Was going back through the Port Gellhorn screenshots the other day and noticed something I'd missed. There's a lady in one of them, and she's biting her lip. Just a tiny little expression, but it caught my eye.

Then I rewatched trailer 2 at 0.25x speed (yeah, I'm that desperate) and saw Jason doing the exact same thing in one of the cutscenes. Same subtle lip bite. It's not a major animation, but it's the kind of thing you'd never see in GTA V or even RDR2.

If Rockstar's putting that level of micro-expression into random NPCs and not just the main characters, the facial animation system must be a huge leap forward. I'm already the type who felt bad capping random townsfolk in RDR2. GTA 6 is gonna make me feel like a monster if every pedestrian has that much life in their face.

We're all starving for info, I know. But these tiny details are exactly why I don't mind the wait. Rockstar's polishing stuff most devs wouldn't even think about. Trailer 3 can't come soon enough though.

That's a 95% upgrade over GTA V's facial rig. It reminds me of RDR2's 'American Venom'.
