But the old used computers of ten years ago that you can buy in 2036 aren’t being produced today. Which means if ten years from now, even if you want to buy a cheap, old, used computer, there won’t be any to buy. Buying old hardware is ONLY a sustainable solution as long as NEW product is continually being introduced. Otherwise the old hardware BECOMES the expensive thing you can’t get.
Which is totally fine… for now.

Game studios aren’t dumb enough to make games that will never be able to run on people’s computers
