Wolf 2 on Xbone wasn't necessarily poorly done, the game's base technical makeup may simply have emphasized the areas where the system bottlenecks the most.

At any rate, I don't think Ark is really a great example as it's a notoriously ugly and unoptimized game on every platform.

The base X1 version of Wolfenstein II is indeed a bit poorly done. That's easy to see because Xbox One X can run it natively at 4k. Something that should only work with 900p games (as MS promised and is usually the case). All current gen consoles have the same bottleneck. CPU power. Even the X only has a maginally better CPU, so it's definitely not a problem in this case. GPU-wise X1 and PS4 aren't that far apart to justify a 44% lower resolution and worse framerate (usually it's 37% lower resolution and near identical framerate).

Xbox One X has 326GB/s of RAM bandwidth to just 68.3GB/s on the base model, perhaps that's where the bottleneck lies.
