  Why? If the game has been targetted at 30 though development and everything built around that it should be fine.

    You really believe that? Have you played New Vegas at 30 and 60 fps? Go ahead and try it out. I’ll wait.

  You say that, but Immortals of Aveum probably would have benefited immensely from a 30 FPS option.

    Even more from a 40FPS option.

      I didn’t follow this game. Can you explain why a lower frame rate is desirable here? Is it just too demanding to run at 60+?

        It is the first shipping UE5 game that uses both Nanite and Lumen, and with insanely detailed environments to boot. It holds a pretty stable 60 FPS on the PS5, but it runs at 720p internally and upscales to 4k using FSR2, resulting in some very questionable image quality.

        I think these features are insanely cool and their commitment to supporting 60 FPS is commendable, but this really is a case where I would actually prefer 30 or 40 FPS with better visuals.

        It’s 720p on PS5 then upscaled. It runs ok at 60FPS. But the Res is simply too low for me

  It’s not going to get better unless companies start making consoles with 1-2 year life cycles (which won’t sell, because at that point, you may as well be swapping parts out of your PC of Theseus).

    Or they stop pushing for high graphical fidelity and ultra realism

      And that’s why some go with Nintendo
