    Any game with motion needs 60fps at a bare minimum, with a consistent frametime. Although 90+ is preferable for an actual pleasant experience. 30fps is just abysmal for anything that isn’t FTL, Balatro or the like.

      Idk man, I’ve enjoyed many a game at 30 fps. 60 is my general target but acting like it’s a minimum to have a fun time is ridiculous.

        Its an opinion, I am used to a smooth experience, I play some fast paced games at 60 on my Steam Deck, its passable, but I’d obviously rather be having it run silky smooth on my PC.

        If you have never really played games at higher than 30/60, then it’s impossible to understand.

          If it’s an opinion, write it like it’s an opinion. You’re clearly not an idiot. Just say what you mean.

            Yea it was a bit of a preach, I’ll admit.

            I just think people should want higher standards, hardware is so powerful now, there’s no excuse for every game not to be targeting 120fps.

      I can’t play FTL at anything less than 240 fps. Those life bars depleting from oxygen deprivation need to be buttery smooth
