The leaker known as Cyberleek is running a poll to pick the next video, and the result is lopsided. According to Notebookcheck, 86.5% of voters want to see Lucia on a side mission, 13.4% want her in third-person free roam, and the two Jason options draw almost no votes.
The poll is set to close on October 11, so a new video should follow shortly. Notebookcheck notes it comes with cryptocurrency goals, a reminder that the leak has a financial side too. The numbers move continuously and have no value as serious measurement: they show what one account's audience wants, nothing more.
The real discussion concerns the October 8 video. According to Polygon, the roughly 24-minute clip shows a nude Jason for over half its length, and fans question how reliable it is. First point: a military tank appears on the map and Cyberleek destroys it. Polygon sees either a cheat code or access to a dev kit or debug menu.
Second point, the bystanders. Rockstar has repeatedly said its non-player characters behave realistically; in the footage, they only react when Jason attacks them. Polygon concludes the content, however entertaining, may not reflect a playable experience. The video stayed online because it is hosted on a decentralized platform.
A useful reminder from Mashable: Take-Two filed subpoenas on August 20 against Microsoft and Discord to try to identify the author, then against Google and X. The filings cite "stolen content", suggesting some clips are authentic. Cyberleek has not been identified, and it is unknown whether it is one person or a group.
Nothing is confirmed about the game. We do not relay the clips or their detailed content, as our journal has explained before: the only reliable information is Rockstar's own, listed on our release page. What the poll really shows is the community's appetite for Lucia, whose gameplay Rockstar has shown little of so far.
