The criteria for Elden Ring seem quite demanding, but many players find them fair given the game's depth and challenge.

Developers aim to attract as many players as possible by setting ideal conditions for buying and enjoying their games.
It's unclear if this machine is well-suited for high-end PC ports beyond Sekiro. I was counting on my Xeon E3-1231v3 with GTX 1660 Super handling 1440p60, which was more than enough back then. Considering the state of game optimization in 2022 and the pandemic, I might opt for a PS5 instead.
This title works on Xbox One, though the lowest spec for PC might be insufficient. Please refine the adjustments to improve accessibility and boost sales.
We're still uncertain about its performance on older base systems. Cyberpunk 2077 worked there too, though technically it didn't go as planned. The deadline is near for XB1 and PS4, and I personally don't want my titles stuck in a dated, basic state. Publishers are worried about losing sales to large player bases. The 8400 CPU from four and a half years ago isn't unreasonable for a high-budget title. Since it's not famous for strong PC optimization or impressive graphics that demand top hardware, I strongly disagree with the attitude shown here. F2P titles should aim for broad compatibility, while AAA developers should strive for excellence.
requires a 4-year-old CPU ≠ poor optimization Many games today demand a high-end processor to function well, especially at 60 frames per second. This is why developers often suggest specs like an 8400, not to intimidate players, but to ensure smooth performance. It’s also why so many titles list “9th or 10th generation” CPUs—just enough to keep things running without breaking the bank. =) Xbox doesn’t match PC’s strict programming standards.
