Comment on Baldur’s Gate 3 Delay Shows The Xbox Series S Still A Headache For Developers
Spuddlesv2@lemmy.ca 11 months agoThey’re complaining that their job is hard. People do that all day, every day, whether it’s a legitimate complaint or not.
They came up with those minimum specs somehow didn’t they? Either that built to those minimum specs, or……? And those specs are less powerful than the Series S. So here we are again!

“Because Xbox mandates that any games launched on its current-gen systems run smoothly on both Series X and Series S”
So no, they don’t get to just pick the minimum specs they support like on the PC version. They have to build a game that runs similarly on S and X, or not launch on either. Hence, the S is always going to limit what devs will be able/willing to do on the current gen consoles. More so than if they could just focus on the X and PS5.
