    That’s just unacceptable. 60fps should have become the minimum standard a long time ago.

      Yeah, that is really a bummer, to be honest. I chose performance mode over quality mode all the time.

      I play Rocket League in 120fps and can’t go back to 60fps.

      I hope Bethesda will release an 60fps mode after release. :(

        Memes aside, that is why I love PC gaming. It gives you more control. Often games limited to low framerates, or FOV, will have community patches to fix that.

          Yeah, that’s definitely true but speaking for myself I don’t even own a PC anymore since I work daily on media design at work and I am kind of exhausted after that work day.

            Oh I get it. The downside of PC gaming is that you need to have the capacity to spend time on learning how to be your own tech support. I love it, but I get that it’s not for everyone.

              I loved that too. I started as a kid playing with MSDOS and Windows 95, used Linux distributions and my Mac at work is heavily tweaked. I rooted all my Android phones back then.

              But now it’s just booting up my Xbox and play some games. :D
