I agree, in that most games that I play (not using UE5); I just set the basic settings I want, and get above 90fps.

messing with the settings (to get above 60fps) in an UE5 engine game is a chore, and most times frame gen barely works, upscaling looks like shit too.

but imo devs didn’t get lazier, UE5 + upscale/framegen made it easier for them to not have to optimize a game, and then (more often than not) when they are forced to crunch, optimizations are frequently out of the question, especially on launch.

can I get a source for further reading? I’m having trouble finding it.

I would tell them that, any president can be your war criminal, rapist agent- given the right glaze (and price, of course).

all money isn’t real if you really think about it, I’d keep spending it!
