So now we’re being forced to have poorer performance and locked into buying more expensive hardware.

I’ll have to pass on this type of crap and vote with my wallet when ray tracing still isn’t there for the majority of pc gamers.

      I can’t comment too deeply on consoles.

      Then don’t.

      Google suggests that it supports ray tracing.

      Series S has raytracing support on paper (just as Steam Deck has) but the GPU is way too underpowered to actually use raytracing for anything.

      So my point stands.

      No, it doesn’t.

      Stop expecting your 10 year old hardware to run new games indefinitely

      Nobody said that. What can be expected is for Microsoft to ship the same performance profiles they enable for one of their platforms (Series S) on their other 1st party platform (Windows).
