Current Events > 30 FPS is perfectly fine to me.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Are my eyes broken? I dont see any difference over 30 FPS so long as the frame rate is stable and doesnt drop below that.

30 fps is fine.
But why stay at fine when you can go higher?

I was playing the Switch version (30 FPS) of Sonic Generations. I've played the PC version (60 FPS) years ago but the Switch version didn't feel or look slow or anything

Why waste resources going higher when I dont notice much difference? Without vsync I can notice some screen tearing at times but with that on it is exactly the same to me.

Someone explain to me what difference I am suppose to be seeing so I can look out for it. Maybe it will be a mind blowing experience.

I can handle 30 fps if the frame rate is stable. But there is definitely a noticeable difference between 30 and 60. If you're playing first or third person games you notice all of your movements and the camera movement are snappier, smoother & faster, for example.

Different people have different tolerances for different things.

There are those who claim anything less than 60fps is intolerable, but are fine listening to YouTube music through shitty speakers/headphones.

As for me, 60 fps somehow feel more responsive than 30 fps.

If you just comparing cinematics, it may not feel that different,
or the forced 60 fps feels a bit janky if the native was at 30fps.

That's like saying SD is perfectly fine

How?

I agree, it literally doesn't make a difference. Ocarina of Time was like 15 FPS and is still one of the best games of all time. I don't care about FPS, it's not a real thing and I refuse to believe it is or care about it

I can handle it if it's stable after an adjustment period.

I jumped right into Horizon Forbidden West on PS5 after finishing the PC version (as in within minutes) where I was getting 60. Because of the issues with the performance mode at release, I went with the graphics mode. Had a headache and was mildly nauseous for about an hour until I got used to it.

Also, if you want the best time to beat me in Mario Kart 8, it's after I've been playing single player or 2 player split screen and then switching to 3+ player split screen.

The irony of people who need 120fps because they are "PC MASTER RACE" but then also gush over 8-bit ROM's on their jail-broken Android phones

As long as it's stable, I really don't care if it's 30

I grew up on 30 (or less). It still looks fine to me after a little adjustment but I prefer 60.

I kinda hate movies that are shot at the higher frame rate though. I dunno if I'm just used to 24 or what but it just looks bizarre watching live action that's shot at the sitcom rate.

It does make a difference. Tales of Symphonia on GameCube is 60 fps and it smooth and fluid. Every other version felt very slow because its 30FPS.

If it looks like how soap operas are filmed, thats a no for me dawg

I can understand wanting 60 FPS for action games, but demanding higher is elitist and stupid

Does the 60fps crowd also leave "Tru Motion Plus" setting on their TV?

I actually do have it on for non-gaming content, but I have an OLED.

Anything less than 60 looks like ass and is unplayable

120+ however is pointless and not worth the steep extra cost to reach in recent games

Always the first thing I disable on a new TV. The fake smoothness and the added stuttering from the algorithms not being able to handle sudden changes in movement or anime framerates is the worst thing ever introduced to TVs

It makes movies that are shot on film look like they were shot on a video camera

Im the same TC. I see no difference between 30 and 60 FPS, even when I am shown side-by-side comparisons that people try to use to prove the difference to me.

Every moronic thing that TVs do makes sense if you assume the people who make them simply don't know there's content other than live action.

Interpolated upscaling, this nonsense. It all makes sense for film.
