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)

Nah, there's tons of things you can optimize, independent of the hardware. The whole industry runs on smokes and mirrors, because even a 2D game can bring the strongest hardware to its knees, if it's badly coded / unoptimized.

(Yes, I have experience with that. 🙃)

And there's always more smokes and mirrors you could be integrating to squeeze out more performance.
