Hellblade 2, FPS and is it really important? (feddit.uk)

How are we feeling about this?

The game won't have a performance/quality mode at launch, but you will be allowed to tweak a little if you're playing on PC.

Now obviously it's not the worst thing in the world, and I'm sure many will be perfectly fine playing at 30, but I can't help but be disappointed by this news.

On a personal level I'll always go with the framerate over graphical fidelity; oftentimes the differences between the visuals in a quality mode just don't justify the loss of that smooth 60FPS, although I'm willing to grant that mileage may vary on that one.

I understand the constant want to improve visuals. They go a long way towards selling a game to it's audience, but I wish we'd gotten to a point where you could 1) have a conversation about the importance of FPS without appearing like a snob and 2) allow devs to prioritize 60FPS over graphical fidelity.

So yeah???

Huh? I thought they would only limit the FPS on the Xbox. Will it now be across all platforms?

That's what I read too, if anyone knows otherwise please let me know. I've been looking forward to Hellblade 2, but locked 30 FPS on PC sounds wild.
