While Zelnick is very relaxed about the leak today, this is far from the immediate reaction that most of the development team had soon after the event. Back in December, severalGTA 6developers demonstrated frustration about the leak, especially considering it was the culmination of several years of work, and they could not prepare properly to commemorate this important moment. Despite this problem, most of them were still proud to see their work unveiled.
