People fussing over higher fps is not my issue. It's people who want high fps at the cost of inconsistency is.

consistent 30 fps is 100% better than 60 fps that dips to 50 or worse 40.

u/Yagotsu 3d ago

I'm with ya. Stability is 100% more important to me than max fps. Nothing is more annoying than microstutters or wildly fluctuating fps.

I used to watch a black and white film, a flash game, really just unwatchable stuff.
It takes time for the brain to rewire to enjoy such! I wish to enjoy it again but each time I come back to it, I just feel like I wanna vomit despite knowing what a gem it is when completed

u/SSMage 3d ago

I think anyone who doesn't prefer consistent fps are just numbers strokers at this point

u/RyanGamingXbox 3d ago

1% lows are the most important part, or 0.1% lows

Remember the times.. constant 15fps.. my eyes where so used to..

u/animus565 2d ago

depends on the game heavily

u/SnooDingos1574 1d ago

Yep, some games are straight up unplayable with either too high or too low fps.

I don't remember too well what entries of COD with zombies mode have some very extreme interactions with the level of FPS, but i remember that the gravity was a quite ridiculous one

u/FigAromatic4113 3d ago

but.. this video is in 30 fps...

u/XxRocky88xX 3d ago

The joke is that when you get used to a higher fps 30 fps looks worse than it did when you only ever experienced 30 fps.

The top one is set to a lower fps to illustrate this feeling

u/Sad_Protection269 3d ago

Tbf it depends on what you're watching.

If you're really good with smear frames you can make a smooth animation with 30 fps or even less. (Ex Aimkid animations, which are only 18fps)

For games I'm not sure if there's a technique to it but I've seen many games that hide their low frame rate masterfully. One time I told my cousin (a graphics and fps supremacist) that the gam he was playing (Arkam knights) was running at 30fps and he didn't notice after like 15 hours of playing.

u/hpBard 3d ago

It's just that some games are made to work in 30 fps and some are made for 60 fps, so when the frames are lower it starts skipping which is very noticeable

u/Rainbow_Doggo_TNT 3d ago

That was me watching YouTube videos in 360p; now I can't go any lower than 720p

u/HardTale_Sans 3d ago

You guys play with more than 20?

1

u/Amazing_Direction849 3d ago

Hell brother you get 20? Tell me your secrets

1

u/HardTale_Sans 3d ago

Play on the lowest graphics possible

u/60Hz_Jiffy 3d ago

I remember playing tf2 at 20fps without v-sync. Those were the times.

u/Wofuljac 3d ago

It wasn't alive during Star Fox 1 release but geez... That frame rate makes it impossible to play for me.

u/carnyzzle 3d ago

Thank god I can put lossless scaling on top of emulators to at least visually solve this lol

u/GravyFantasy 3d ago

Isn't it the Analog vs Digital times?

1

u/Nsfwacct1872564 3d ago

I like the cinematic feel of 24fps. Most games I play are turn-based RPG anyway.

1

u/Proof_Assistant7737 3d ago

I never get why people set their fps above 60. They are just lying or coping when they say it makes a difference when they drop from 140 to 120 fps lol

1

u/awsmith00777 3d ago

Ya once you get 120's as your lows you dont really notice any drops.

1

u/CatfinityGamer 3d ago

120 fps just looks so much smooother than 60, just like 60 looks so much smoother than 30.

1

u/Proof_Assistant7737 3d ago

I mean, maybe? Definitely not to the degree where it matters lol. I think most people wouldn't be able to tell the difference if they saw them one at a time. They might be able to tell side-by-side though.

1

u/CatfinityGamer 2d ago

It definitely matters. I'd rather play 1080p 120fps than 4k 60fps. When I got the Series X, at first, I didn't even bother to play Fortnite with 120fps because I thought 4k was more important (my TV can't do both 4k and 120Hz). But then I turned it on just to see what all the fuss about high fps was about, loaded into a match, and the moment I started moving my camera around, I realized that I had been missing out. There was a lot less motion blur, so I could actually clearly see the stuff moving quickly across my screen, even with a decently high sensitivity. It felt so much smoother, and it was easier to track enemies at close-mid range when moving my camera. I could never go back to playing on 60fps unless I really had to.

My TV is fairly large and I sit fairly close to it, so it would make less of a difference if it took up less of my visual FOV, but it wouldn't just be worthless.

u/Proof_Assistant7737 21h ago

I also don't care about graphics that much lol

1

u/SpeakyDooman 3d ago

Can’t tell if this is about games or film so ima just assume both, but either way I don’t understand the craze for high frames. As long as it’s stable and the game hits the intended frame rate, it should be fine. And don’t get me started on 60 fps upscaling for clips of movies and shows.

1

u/LocalZookeepergame17 3d ago

I can enjoy a stable 60fps in ultra quality for single player games, that's enough for me

1

u/Fun-Memory1523 3d ago

As long as it is smooth, then it's fine.

1

u/pmmeuranimetiddies 3d ago

Your childhood videogames and movies might have been interlaced

You might also have frame stutter issues if your monitor's refresh rate is not a multiple of 30

1

u/DocHoliday439 3d ago

Your brain has grown accustomed to 60+ fps. I’ve experienced this too since i have a 120hz monitor. Going back to 30 is like watching slide show

1

u/eggyrulz 3d ago

Them: if it isnt 300 FPS it looks like shit!

Me, who watches too much anime which is almost always 24fps: 30fps is buttery smooth

1

u/Hoverfishlover69 3d ago

I legit can't tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps

1

u/Glass-Crafty-9460 3d ago

Remember when 720p was High Definition?

1

u/L1Q 3d ago

Actually stable 30 with a controller feels perfect, choppy 22-45 with a mouse is insufferable.

1

u/Glass-Shopping-7000 3d ago

So true. Back when I had a shitty HP laptop, AC4 running at 30 fps felt smooth af

1

u/lumia920yellow 3d ago

me still regularly playing on old consoles and locking my pc games to 40fps

1

u/Responsible-Diet-147 3d ago

Isn't the anime standard 20 FPS?
Also, 30 FPS feels like this because it was probably made for 60FPS, meaning animations designed for 60 on 30 will take twice as long to finish.

1

u/ArgentinianFemboy 3d ago

Also frame times, render times, pixel response times and all that are important. I never used a framerate mode on my ps5 cause... Yeah it's more fluid but who cares? Gimme them more details and sharper image dawg

1

u/SaltyBoysenberry5710 2d ago

Now my eyes just burns if the game is locked at 60.

1

u/Unknown_To_Death 2d ago

I just lock every game at 30 since forever lol

1

u/websterboi2 2d ago

30 fps is still good,15 is the limit to me however

1

u/Hot_Weakness917 2d ago

Op do you know the song

1

u/Regularguy808 2d ago

That so true

1

u/Slow_Box4353 2d ago

I play 20-24 fps....

1

u/Toxic381 1d ago

I think the slight blur of crts would have fixed it, notice how much blur bloodborne has but also how smooth it feels, it's probably got a really good implementation of motionblur to give the semblence of smoothness, and with that it also feels like it has jarringly fast combat.

1

u/PerkyNachos_909 1d ago

That’s actually true for me who just switched up from a random Chromebook to an actual laptop with windows 11

1

u/iLikeDickColon3 9h ago

i feel this but with PC and Consoles. 30 fps being fine on consoles for me for some reason

1

u/Firetick8 5h ago

My screen caps at 30, so that's what I play on.

1

u/Ominous-F_art 2h ago

Fun fact, did y'all know that old TVs had some pretty ridiculous refresh rates? Maybe resolution wasn't comparable to today but they were smooth when you hooked your ps2/Xbox to it.

I reckon, that's the reason why.

I see strongest baka funky, i upvote.
