Todd Howard asked on-air why Bethesda didn't optimise Starfield for PC: 'We did [...] you may need to upgrade your PC' (www.pcgamer.com)

Modern literally means the most recent release.

Which I explained would mean the 4000 series/7000 series GPUs and the 13th Gen/Zen 4 CPUs, but the worst one from one of these is not better than the best of the previous generation, so it's not as cut and dry as 'modern/old'.

Starfield is pushing no limits, thats the point. It's just built like shit, so it runs like it. I could maybe be swayed a bit on the matter if it was absolutely ground breaking, but it isn't. It's Fallout 4 in space with less stuff going on at any one time.
