Even though that may be true, that's not how it was advertised. Last gen players still make up most of the market and are understandably disappointed. CDPR didn't even announce a next gen upgrade until earlier this year... Well into the development cycle. Everyone thought the game would also be optimized on last gen. Currently, it's in an unacceptable state.
Correct. I think the blame is ultimately on CDPR for grossly misunderstanding just how much optimizaiton work needed to be done to have the game run well.
