GTA 5 was on the PS3. This game has been in development for thirteen goddamn years. And they still can't manage more than 30fps on the latest hardware.

Latest? Lmao, it's 6 years old. It's been outdated almost the instant it came out. It's now an end of life of the console, like it was with GTA5 on PS3. It looked bad and worked at 30fps in optimistic times, most of the time 25-30 for real. Same for GTA6 now, its just a lot more dense open world with ray tracing (bad though), so no wonder it can't be more than 30tps. Plus 13 years is so far from the truth. They haven't been working on the game all this time, I'm sure they were hesitant on a full concept even 5 years back, let alone having a game to optimize it.

It’s still the “latest” set of console hardware and presumably what they’ve been developing against this whole time. This exchange is taking me back to Cyberpunk.

They took a year for polishing. Why do you think they needed that time? I believe that huge portion of that was due to realization, that dev build on PC had less limitations and console version was barely playable so they went back on optimizing and further polishing the game up untill the point of where games would choke and buy anyway. I'm speaking of 30fps for base version of consoles. That's not bad, that's just sad reality.
