Larian is having trouble fitting Baldur’s Gate III on the Xbox Series S, the lower-priced and lower-powered console in Microsoft’s ninth-generation lineup.

I was looking up more information on why there’s such an issue getting BG3 on Xbox, and found this article with a lot more detail on the topic.

EDIT: The issue isn’t graphics or frame rate; it’s memory. The article goes into detail.

Why would you load a texture twice in memory? Especially if it's for the exact same object? It only needs to be rendered twice the texture stays the same and therefore only need to be stored once in ram...

He didn't say load a texture twice, he said twice the textures - which is a worst case scenario, but you could get if the players aren't near to each other.
