        Well unreal Tournament is older than me and i am a legal adult. So suffice to say that the technology wasn’t really there yet for games

        Sure. And I used to be okay downloading my porn at 56kbps. Now I want my smut so hi-def that I can see the actors’ emotional scars. Peoples’ standards change as technology advances. If you want to be stuck in 2001, go right ahead, but that doesn’t mean everyone else has to be.

          30fps is 2001

          Some people do not deserve an internet connection. There should be a stupidity test to pass before being allowed to use it.

      Maybe I’m just not very observant but I can barely tell the difference between 30 fps and 60 fps. I only start to notice below 25.

        Everyone’s perception is different. I can do 60 fps. I prefer 90 fps minimum and 120 fps target. I see no benefit at 144 or higher. Anything below 60 fps and I just get frustrated. That’s my perception.

        30 fps though is something we should move away from. Given how far we’ve come in with all kinds of hardware and software features.

      I played RuneScape 3 for years at 18 fps on max settings on my shitter computer and I honestly couldn’t tell at all and had fun the whole time.

        I remember playing OSRS and Team Fortress 2 on my shitter PC with like 10-20fps.

        It was fine back then, considering my brain hadn’t yet normalized 60+, but nowadays I struggle with anything under 50fps. I guess I played too many fast-paced games since then because Switch games that fluctuate between 25-30fps really turn me off from playing.
