Hello I made a mistake and let my mind wander a bit, so I was thinking gee it's so convenient that some dev's these days have a shit code problem that's so bad it makes you need to buy better hardware. Then my next thought was what if thats the point? We've seen sites like pc gamer recommend parts. What if some studio's are getting kickbacks somehow. my thought process was that incompetence can't be the only reason for games running like they have 5 different copy's of denuvo sucking on them at some point things start looking deliberate like the pokemon company's latest fuck up.

You should have seen the computer market of the late 1990s, when a brand-new, multi-thousand dollar computer would be obsolete in 3-6 months. It was insane.
And people have been complaining about shitty, sloppy code at least since Windows '95/Microsoft itself was a thing; I pretty much remember nerdy computer science types flatly accusing MS of hiring bad coders, and being responsible for 90s era code-bloat. Some of this was from people older than myself, who worked with punch cards and ticker tape computers in school.
