Once again reminding you that gamers are the most annoying smug little treat shits that can't enjoy anything.

God damn do I hate the gaming community. Just absolutely obsessed with picking everything apart and never actually having fun with the hobby they supposedly enjoy.
Everything is about complaining about wokeness or about which souless corporation is the best/worst or about over analysing whether Silent Poopoo 3 is the worst game ever because 59 frames per second and Resident Pee had 60.
You're viewing a single thread.
To be fair about the framerate comment, some people are very sensitive to shifts in framerates. It's one of the reasons I have an issue with quite a few Nintendo games. 30 or less fps can make me a little queasy. This effect is magnified if the framerate jumps around a lot. It's the main reason why my PC is specced out for a smooth 60fps for anything I play. I just can't handle it otherwise, literally.
It's also worth noting that each frame is an opportunity for player inputs to be registered by the game, so for any sort of game where tight reactions are an important part of gameplay (which is many -- particularly fighting and other competitive games), higher framerate can directly translate to more responsive controls.
Yeah, idk how "I want my games to not run badly" is getting lumped in here. Trying to play something like Shin Megami Tensei V on an actual Switch where it swings from 25 - 30 FPS the whole time feels bad compared to 45 - 60+ FPS on an emulator. The game slows down or "lags" when those dips happen and you can absolutely both feel and see this. Games that don't hit the 60 FPS mark don't have a lot of excuses when so many of their contemporaries manage it without issues. There's no reason people should have dips to 30 FPS in Dragons Dogma 2 on overpriced enthusiast PC hardware. I'm not gonna call the devs lazy, but it often reveals that their priorities do not align with mine in more ways than just frames per second.
That's the exact reason why I stopped playing SMT5. I could not handle that jumpy framerate at all.
i used to be able to handle it better. I just...hm.... acquired, the whole Battle for Middle-Earth series and it's locked at 30fps. it's literally unplayable now by giving me headaches. I'm sure I could manage it again after a while, but eughh it's not worth the pain
Battle for Middle-Earth
Particularly BFME 2 for me... yeah, those games need a remaster badly, but they're locked in IP hell.So, fun fact. You can download a launcher from moddb that just allows you to install the games and some of the more popular mods, because yeah. You literally can't buy it.
AND someone made a program to break the code to remove the lock from the fps in a way that doesn't make the game run faster (this used to be a big thing back in the day, they'd lock the fps to the speed of the game) but they've paywalled the tool on their patreon
Wow, great info here. Thanks comrade. I had no idea about the mod launcher letting you download the games. I have BFME2 + RotWK on CD, but it's a hassle to install these days.
As for the tool, I'm a bit annoyed at the paywall, but I'd consider tossing a few bucks in if I feel like giving those games a go again.
You can't jump properly unless you have a framerate of 125
huh huh huh huh huh huh huh
playing csgo for years on 144hz 300fps ruined me
I can handle 30 fps when emulating old games since often there's no way to go higher or existing 60 fps patches break stuff.
Lower than that just feels really bad
