The version above my currently installed version was seen as corrupt, which I thought was way too easy.

Uninstalled current version, installed next version and it installed perfectly.

Uninstalled that, installed latest version, perfectly fine.

Aparently the, "corruptedness" was the Note 8 trying to install a full APK over the same APK when it should have been seen as a patch, or treated like an update from the original provider? (Nothing y'all did, I'm sure the updated apps in app store delete and re-install it for me. In this case would be me deleting, and installing the next updated version)

Mystery solved. Going to test performance and compare S8+ to Note 8 . I will post results soon.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help.

Android has never seen new APKs as patches - it's always "uninstalled" and re-installed, but keeping the data files so config/state isn't lost.

You have to 'adb install -r /path/to/app.apk' using adb, I assume you have to do something similar using whatever install method you're using on-device. Clearly, that has a misleading error message.

Very misleading. I just click the APK in 7zip2.0 download section, allow unknown source to install, click install, and done. Tjen I just long press on my homescreen back ground and place the app icon on screen. And lol, I understand that android never sees APK's as patches, it was trying to update the existing APK with the new APK  and I was referencing the minor edit to the updated version being a patch.

I'm just glad I figured it out. I also figured out the Need for Speed loading screen crash.

Oh, and the performance feels exactly the same, isn't too surprising given the simular hardware, but a boy can dream.
