People are entitled because they don't want to spend thousands of dollars on components only for them to be outdated within a fraction of the lifecycle of a console?

How about all the people that have the minimum or recommended specs and still can't run the game without constant stuttering? I meet the recommended specs and I'm playing on low everything with upscaling turned on and my game turns into a laggy mess and runs at 15fps if I have the gall to use the pause menu in a populated area. I shouldn't have to save and reload the game just to get it to run smoothly.

Bethesda either lied about the minimum/recommended requirements or they lied about optimization. Let's not forget about their history of janky PC releases, dating back to Oblivion, which was 6 games and 17 versions of Skyrim ago.

Consoles don't even last their whole life time anymore, both machines required pro models to keep up with performance last gen and rumours have it Sony are gearing up for one this gen too.
