https://youtu.be/Fb1UUesbNlY shows a Pi 4 running OpenMW not badly at 720p with medium draw distance.

Still looks pretty bad, I think I'd rather run the Android port of OpenMW with an HDMI adapter I think.

Maybe I'm used too much to playing with 60+ fps, but I would call a highly unstable framerate with dips below 20fps bad.
How comes the Android port is supposed to be faster? Isn't Raspberry PI 4 similar to a good Android smartphone in hardware?
I would have characterized it more as a midrange phone from half a decade ago.
Half a decade is not much. My phone is a flagship from more than a half a decade ago and everything (except the GPS module - it usually takes minutes of standing still to hit enough satellites and knocks out the whole new battery in under half an hour) works perfectly fast.
Half a decade in mobile CPU time is massive. The A15 is, at minimum, literally 5x faster than the A10.
