Something not mentioned too much. Not only are the base systems already 7 years old, there was a wealth of evidence early on they were built on a budget and would struggle to last. Didn't stop people buying them in droves.
We didn't start seeing the first Cyberpunk gameplay trailers until fairly late in the gen, and it should've been apparent those base systems would struggle to run it anywhere close to it's intended quality.
