So you hate that PCs are more capable and can display better graphics at higher framerates and have rationalized it to yourself that worse graphics and framerates on a console are "how the developers intended".
I can understand not wanting to tinker with settings and just load a game up and know what to expect in terms of graphics and framerate, but I just cannot disagree more with what you are saying here. Building games to console limitations and not even giving the option for fidelity or framerate just seems like a step backward.
You have a point.
Personally, I was mostly thinking about these options for games developed mostly for consoles.
It’s true that I hadn’t taken into account that some games are developed for pc and downgraded for consoles.
Still, even for such a game I would want the developers to think about their perfect ratio between fidelity and performance.
