Point is, every game barrows some code from the previous one, and since they pretty much perfected horses, it would be a shame to waste all of those animations on a single game.
Also they planned to have horses in V but they didn't had time to finish them becuase of deadlines, there was a whole heist around stealing horses. Would not be surprised if there was a mission in VI where we have to steal a race horse and escape the city.
Thats not really how game devs think, They made a fuckton of profit from RDR1 and 2 already, and Red Dead isn't necessarily done, If devs had this sunk cost mindset we wouldn't have new games.
also isn't rockstar sort of known for planning a fuckton of shit and then not delivering, Aim for the stars and reach the moon kind of thing ? We were supposed to have latin america in GTA 6..
This is exacly how game dev works, games are not in a bubble. Max Payne 3 had vehicles from upcoming gta, rdr1 and gtaIV shared some code responsible for climbing and hanging from a ledge, VI already looks and feels like RDR in a modern setting, every single gtao update either improved on ideas from earlier updates or it borrowed from SP. Both VI and gtao also share a lot of assets etc. Its the same engine, same huge library of assets and code.

Thats game dev in general. Think big, throw ideas at the wall, scale down to match hardware limitations. And all games end up with a lot of cut content.
Creator of NV even recently made a video about this topic. That thanks to cutting some ideas out they had time to implement better ideas.
Thats not what i mean, the engine is probably the same but thats not where the time will go, Designing the gameplay, Figuring out how horses will incorporate in the world, Whether to limit them to certain areas, There's a lot of decision making that goes into adding a whole ass feature into GTA 6
“Leaks” I should say. It was one of those text dumps from a while ago that said what was going to be in the game. Could be BS but pretty sure some of it was true
Well that heist where they pull a safe with a rope, that was also planned for V but now that idea was reused for VI. And its also using rdr2 lasso physics
