Right? The game doesn't even look that good. I've heard people talking about how "incredibly complex and open this game is", but... it's not. Fallout 4 offers the same depth and an actually open world and it does work in 60 fps.

If you play on PC you’ll know exactly why 60 fps isn’t feasible. I have a 4090 and due to performance fluctuations, I have to lock it at 60 fps (until the update). Even locked at 60 fps I still get stutters in Akila and NA. That’s the issue is that in some areas it’s pretty easy for the Xbox to hit 60, in other it’s a pipe dream until they make major optimizations.

I mean, I know, I've played it on PC as well, but I still can't understand how poorly it runs.

Gotta be the engine I’m thinking, since these issues are common in every Bethesda release
