Absolutely bizarre that a 1st party title doesn't seem optimized for the console they're developing for. This makes me skeptical the PC version will be optimized too.

I'm aware that the PS5 is low on "exclusives". A big part of the reason I got it was for simple things like being able to run old PS4 games at higher framerates.

We're past the diminishing returns on visuals for games; not to say games can't look ugly, but with a decent art direction, the capabilities of current consoles are more than enough. That's why Nintendo was still able to sell Tears of the Kingdom for $60.

PS5 certainly has better exclusives than xbox.

True - I think I meant to refer to it more as a generational issue; many people haven't upgraded to either current-gen console yet because they don't technically need them. PS5 might have few exclusives, but Xbox has basically none. (Many of their heavy-hitters like Sea of Thieves still run on Xbox One)
