The game doesent look that amazing.

Obviously not on an Xbox One anyway.

Yeah saw that being discussed "elsewhere". Most "others" suggested they haven't been optimized for the specific console.
Then again they did just delay 5 months.
Plus there are other rumors that they are in severe crunch time.

What percentage of PC are "capable" of this game though? How many actually have a computer that will run at what they want, and how many are sitting at console level or less?

PC now - Next gen next year would be interesting. But also a brutal punch to the userbases of both PS and XB. Better to decide now than later though.

20.9% of PC's have a Geforce 1060 alone which is Xbox One X levels of performance.

A further 20% have a Geforce RTX 2080/2070/2060 and Geforce GTX 1070/1080/1660/1660Ti/1070Ti/1080Ti/1650.

And there are a ton more GPU's that crap all over the Radeon 7750 class GPU in the Xbox One... So it's easy to say the vast majority of gaming PC's beat the Xbox One.

And here we have another reason for me to run away from Xbox S and go straight into Xbox X.

By the way I had no idea we had games even under 900p on the S. Also I felt there was something weird in Jedi Fallen Order for PS4, like if the resolutoin was subpar, even tried changing my TV setup. If you are right now it is explained why.

The Xbox One S is just a slimmed and updated base Xbox One with a 4k blu-ray player, HDR support and slightly better clocks to make up for the hit to performance HDR brings.

There are games that are 720P on the S. Heck there are games that are 720P on the Xbox One X...

If Lockhart is just less GPU, why would there be an issue? 1/3 of the GPU power could just be a lower resolution.

Cyberpunk is also heavily reliant on console revenue.

The GPU does allot... It's not always just as simple as scaling back resolution.

By cutting back the GPU you could be introducing new bottlenecks into the chip design.

Cutscenes look exceptional in Cyberpunk, naturally. But actual gameplay footage generally just looked like 8th gen graphics. If that was hyped as 9th gen graphics, I would be disappointed.

PCs that have specs at par with X1, won't necessarily perform as well. NXGamer did an interesting video about X1 outperforming PC specs that are seemingly superior.

What game takes advantage of X1X and are 720p? Are you talking about a dynamic resolution at its worst? Or maybe you mean games just designed for base hardware?

The ideal scenario is Lockhart would be capable of running the same content as Series X just with lower resolution and maybe some small tweaks to other settings if necessary. Assuming all other specs are the same the only bottleneck should be in the GPU.
