I probably shouldn't say anything since I'm playing this on a PS5, but people tend to forget that games have launched with pretty appalling performance in the past and it didn't stop people from enjoying them.

I mean, I put something like 170 hours into Skyrim on PS3 myself. And Dark Souls. Well, a lot of multi-plat games on PS3, really.
Perhaps but on the og xbox the game is unplayable with such appalling framerates, you honestly can't believe that to be acceptable, surely? They fucked up and they know it, also the practice of denying review code for consoles is downright shady as fuck. I love the game a lot but in no way can CDPR be let off here.

Yeah. Not allowing people so see it running on consoles was obviously wrong. But I can't really see an option where there wouldn't have been a backlash.

Let people see it runs like shit on old consoles = shitstorm
Decide to not release it on old consoles = shitstorm and a massive financial hit

Obviously they need to do something to generate some goodwill here. A promise they'll work on it until it's playable, and free DLC for PS4/Xbox One players, or something.
