It’s definitely going to run afoul of current-gen only titles.
The PS4 and Xbox One had utterly shit CPUs. Even at launch, they were half the speed of average PC desktop chips.
PS5 and Xbox Series X have pretty good CPUs. And games will now be doing extra shit to utilise that and keeping to the target framerate.
Graphics can nearly always be toned down to low levels, to run at 720p (even if upscaled to that), reduce quality of all assets, etc. But the base things the game needs in order to run at all often can’t be. While I’m sure you could mod Baldur’s Gate 3 to take away every NPC that isn’t vital to the story in Act 3, it won’t be the same game.
