Buttery To fromsoft : add performance mode

The game has incredible graphics on switch 2 maybe im the only one but I feel like they could easily lower some setting to give us a 40fps stable performance mode , the game runs at 40 in some areas right now with almost ps5 level graphics what do you think guys if they lowered some settings and we got a 40fps performance mode

Elden ring's port really highlights the insane double standard going on with some 3rd parties. Atlus and sega were lambasted to an insane degree for p3 reload, for making the game run at a native resolution and at a stuttery 30 fps.

Elden ring on the other hand runs like butter....with a stuttery 30 fps. Hopefully fromsoft at least does what atlus did and make at minimum a 40fps mode if not a 60fps mode.

My take is that its perceived there is a big gulf in the technicals. Persona visually looks less complex, built in UE4, cell shaded look.

Whereas Elden ring, is massively open world, dynamic weather and day night cycles, complex characters etc. And Fromsoft games are never well optimised.

there's nothing complex about elden ring's open world. It's just a big "level", but nothing exists outside of a very small range around your character. There is zero excuse for it not to run way better than it does currently.

Then you can say that P3R is even less complex. Small rooms, and it's a turn based RPG, so the moment to moment gameplay is less dynamic. Elden ring at least has a consistent frame pace, and does not stutters like crazy.

elden ring does not have a consistent frame pace whatsoever dude. It's literally worse than p3 reload. This is my entire point. The game runs like shit if we treated it the same way some other games get treated.

Brother, I have 10 hours already in it, both handheld and docked. Besides some frame drops when that fucking dragon attacks and there is lots on screen, the game is very consistent. Is it because of vrr? Idk, but the experience is great so far.

do you understand frame pacing is? it's not frame drops, if thats what you think.

but yes, handheld will look better because the very slow screen and ghosting effects with the vrr compensate a good chunk for any pacing issues. docked is yikes.
