However, every game on Xbox Series X also has to work on Series S, meaning every game is sort of chained to the limitations of that console to a degree.
Since you’re forced to develop for the S when developing for the X, the title of the article still works as-is.
Microsoft’s walked this back for a few games now, BG3 being the largest, and I’d bet a lot try at Witcher 4 will get that same bump.
Edit: even then, the X wasn’t an FPS issue and games were hitting a stable 60 on that while shitting the bed on the S, so developing for the X is still not the problem.
“Filled” / “Three people”
Hahah what? Folks are just asking you do the smallest of read through on an article, and if you make the very common ‘whoops that was wrong’ mistake, just correct it instead of throwing a fit about how you’re being bullied.
You have 2 options for the S. Aim for 60 fps, or 30fps. If you target 60, most newer engine titles will look like the new Doom did at 60 fps, garbage. You have to run at such a low resolution to make it possible. At 30fps, you can at least not look like your screen is smeared with vaseline at the sacrifice of smoothness.
Give the player the option of 30/60 so they we can play how we want.
It’s really convoluted and, in this case, not really the fault the developers. Microsoft presents everyone with a high-end console, the Series X, but studios like CD Projekt Red can’t make use of its full potential because they’re forced to target the lower-end Series S first.
I’m responding to the stupid misleading headline. The series X (according to the article) is not the challenge. It’s the series S that is. Regardless of Microsoft’s dumb rules, the headline is misleading and disingenuous.
However, every game on Xbox Series X also has to work on Series S, meaning every game is sort of chained to the limitations of that console to a degree. With that said, some developers have voiced frustrations with developing for the Xbox Series S and it was even reportedly an issue when bringing Black Myth: Wukong to Xbox.

Gotta update the title man, entirely wrong system.

It’s their headline, not mine.
Then why even post it? I get it’s theirs but that’s wildly misleading and there are other sites using the S in their headline.
Oh, FFS. I can’t pretend to know what will or won’t piss you guys off.

My inbox was filled with three people complaining about the title.
Oh no! Three people? 😱
This is not the first time I’ve been asked about headlines. So, yeah, it can get midly frustrating.

I didn’t need to be reminded about it three freakin’ times.

Note to self: don’t post Xbox articles next time.
I really like my Series S but having a few games be X exclusive would be fine. It’s definitely holding the X back at this point.

Title needs to be updated. They were bemoaning the Series S not the Series X.
The series S, not the series X which is close in power to the PS5.

Funny cause they released halo infinite on the Xbox one as well.
I feel sorry the developers.
