I think we need to remember that the game really was only in dev from mid-2016 to now.

Pre-production since announcement but main development was really started in mid 2016 when CDPR finished all of the Witcher DLCs.

This game was def not in prod for only 4 years. And it's a different team that started working on it. A regular game takes 3 years~~ so imagine a game of that size.
