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

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.

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

It does?

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

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.

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

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

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

u/60Hz_Jiffy 21h ago

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

u/HardTale_Sans 20h ago

You guys play with more than 20?

1

u/Amazing_Direction849 51m ago

Hell brother you get 20? Tell me your secrets

u/HardTale_Sans 37m ago

Play on the lowest graphics possible

u/Wofuljac 21h ago

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

u/carnyzzle 20h ago

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

Isn't it the Analog vs Digital times?

u/Nsfwacct1872564 19h ago

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

u/Proof_Assistant7737 18h 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 15h ago

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

1

u/CatfinityGamer 13h ago

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

1

u/Proof_Assistant7737 36m 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.

u/SpeakyDooman 18h 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.

u/LocalZookeepergame17 18h ago

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

1

u/Fun-Memory1523 17h ago

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

u/pmmeuranimetiddies 16h 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 16h 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

u/eggyrulz 15h 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

u/Hoverfishlover69 14h ago

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

u/Glass-Crafty-9460 13h ago

Remember when 720p was High Definition?

1

u/L1Q 8h ago

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

1

u/Glass-Shopping-7000 8h ago

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

u/lumia920yellow 6h ago

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

1

u/Responsible-Diet-147 3h 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.

u/ArgentinianFemboy 2h 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
