He never says he agrees or that it's his opinion.
Does that really sound more reasonable of a justification for you than him pushing for framerate now because of the marketing direction they're taking?
It isn't nonsense. 30 fps is good for certain genres and games. horizon zero dawn, death stranding etc. Alot of movies are 24 fps actually...
Lol control wasnt optimized (i think) and weak base consoles.
What does movies fps have to do with gameplay and feel fps?
This is simply false. Every single game benefits from enhanced fps.
Your argument wasn't initially that the better graphics allowed by 30 FPS outweighs 60 FPS. It was literally that 60 FPS has no sales impact.
I game at 144hz on pc so i know lol. Alot of users in this thread agree with me.
I don't know what to tell you. 60 fps is objectively superior to 30 fps for playing a game.
Forza Horizon, Gears, and Halo have already made the transition to 60fps. Open your eyes.
Some games can get away with 30 fps though, but yes all games are better at 60 or higher.
I would argue that the focus on fidelity above all else in a 30 FPS game is likely to make it more expensive than developing for 60 FPS.
The comment being responded to was: "60fps made everything seem too light and weightless."
No game is improved by lowering the frame rate. Higher frame rates are always better.
Targeting higher frame rates is the most "next-gen" looking thing you could do.
30 fps is never better. I'm not sure how a choppier motion would ever fit a game better than smooth motion. Higher frame rates add motion clarity and faster input response. There are no losses, only gains.
Halo MCC and Halo 5 are 60fps on Xbox One. Yes you're right about the others but it's also showing the direction XGS is going especially with a massively improved CPU in next gen.
I think most games could get away with 30fps especially if they are a solid 30 but every game will benefit from higher frame rates. I found it amusing Naughty Dog said how much better The Last of Us Remaster was at 60 and now they go back to 30 for the sequel, all because they are pushing the graphics over frame rates once again. Maybe on the PS5 it will be playable at 60fps.
Yes, he said he loves frame rates back then too,
Well you just answered your own concerns, Death Stranding is coming to PC and won't be locked to 30fps. Maybe this is the solution, port everything later to the PC. That way the original design is still intact.
Defendant not guilty. Case closed. LOL
He did not say that lol let's go to the interview in question
The interviewer told Phil here that he just wants good-looking graphics, that's the beginning and end of his list. Graphics
So now with that context, let's go back to the "damning" part that y'all are latching on to
the interviewer went from just caring about graphics to now caring about frame rate. That's why Phil asked the reporter specifically why he cared. I couldn't find anywhere in the interview where he said most people don't care about frame rate.
You can MAYBE make the claim with this section
He's just saying there's some people who are fine with/don't notice/don't care about the 30fps/60fps debate.
Debunked what? He hasn't debunked anything.
In the specific context he was saying it in. It wasn't a general statement that the headline presents it as.
