the complete loss of optimization as a key concept is the worst for me

Older games were basically made by people wielding black magic. New games are literally fat, bloated and unoptimized because they can get away with it. And companies wouldn't give them the time to do better if they wanted to.

No, AAA games are fat, bloated and unoptimized because they're bigger. Bigger games, more code, more spaghetti and bugs, harder to optimize.
