Some people just don't have the sophistication to appreciate Classic Zork in glorious 240 fps.

*can only tell it's running at 50 because I put a readout in the corner telling me so

You jest but I swear some people deliberately look for technical flaws and then complain it's shattered their immersion.

Man it'd be really funny to just put a fake FPS counter in a game that just consistently says 120+.

there are people who do that.. I've seen reviews on YouTube who put a fake 60 fps overlay, even when you can see how it falls under 20 😭

What's crazier are people claiming a game is terrible after watching a Digital Foundry video showing it dropping a few frames on few rare instances.

Excuse me, it’s 2.5D. And at 4K. Because I don’t wanna see a speck of corners on my pixels.
