I completely disagree with this take. The worst offenders recently have been games where the developers were determined to continue supporting outdated old XBox and Playstation hardware as well as trying to offer a next generation experience to PC and next-gen consoles.

There were incredible games like Hades, Cruelty Squad, or 13 Sentinels that released recently and didn’t tackle the induced demand of next-gen hardware. I think the parent commenter is suggesting that when studios look away from technical showcase, evocative and new work comes to the forefront.

I'm not aware of this happening to any game other than Cyperpunk, can you name others?

  Battlefield 2042 is the latest example. All of Ubisoft's games. The new Call of Duty WW2 game. There are lots.

  Valhalla is a good example. It's a great experience on the modern platforms with SSD/NVME drives, but really rough to play on the older HDD consoles.
