Honestly though, I believe the early issues with the game were mostly on consoles. On a decently specced PC, the game would run nicely right after launch, with some bugs, but nothing game breaking. I got it right after launch day and enjoyed myself quite a bit with it. The police and the way the cars drove were the things that bothered me the most.

I remember hearing even some high specced pcs were having issues and you had to essentially be lucky that you had a configuration that they had the time to optimise for. Just having the best gpu wasn't enough, for example

thats was just a loud minority talking about super max setting with Raytracing and 4k

Weren't they specifically advertising for that? The criticism is valid if they were.

Not that I remember, true that it didn't handle the last gen consoles, and that it was marketed as quite demanding

Sadly "minimum" or "recommended" just tells us the game runs, not that it runs well

Recommended is absolutely meant to be "the game runs well on this" not just it runs

The thing is what is the consensus of "runs well"? Is it a FPS constant? No glitches? Fast loads?

My point is, a game can come shitty and run a constant 30 fps under the "recommended" since that's what they thought was appropriate

Is a gray area that should be more descriptive, not sure why downvote me
