I’m not sure Microsoft did this generation of consoles any favours by launching the Series S.

    How does any of that mean that “it’s very much the same as optimising for PC”? Are you saying that developers optimise for every PC configuration possible?

    Someone else posted that you can run the game on a PC with weaker specs than a Series S. So clearly it isn’t the same.

      I’m not trying to attack you, merely trying to understand why it wouldn’t be the same. You saying “are you saying the devs are stupid” isn’t a very good explanation.

      See my answer to the comment you mention.

        The article I shared was developers complaining about having to optimise for the Series S. But you’re saying that it should just be the same as PC optimising for PC. I completely agree with your answer in that Microsoft stipulates rules for the S. That’s the point. It isn’t the same as PC. Developers have to specifically work on getting games to run on the Series S. I’m so confused as to the point you’re trying to make to me, when in another comment you acknowledge that developers have different standards they’re required to meet for the S. We seem to actually agree.
