There is a limit to how much the eye can notice and how discerning it is.

It's a completelly diferent thing. It's not even comparable. You can find tests online where you can clearly see the diference between 40 and 60 fps. The human eye can see much more than that, it doesn't work in "FPS".

so tsuntsun

side by side 30 vs 60 fps:
+ Show Spoiler +

i can tell the difference (30 looks like it has more motion blur n stuff) but its not a big deal to me im a laid back guy

i mean on some level the human eye vision system has to have some temporal resolution though, everything does. it's just not necessarily a static one

Hmm?
Step 1: set ur 120hz monitor to 120hz. wiggle mouse in a smallish circle
Step 2: set ur 120hz monitor to 60hz. wiggle mouse in a smallish circle
difference is noticeable.
GOD FORBID you try 30hz
i literally went to a store, saw a sick-ass 4K monitor on demo, was like "sweet lemme check this out" touched the mouse and was instantly shocked by how awful it was. It took me a few seconds to realize that it was being hdmi 1.4 driven so 30hz so fukcing disaster

u dont notice as much when u don't really have a cursor and/or are stuck to joystick controls I guess.

No difference at all guys, it's all imagined.
No but seriously anyone with properly working eyes can see the difference.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

2560x1440 ips 120hz is one thing and matters a lot of some games
but things are still perfectly playable at 30 fps 720p if the selling point of the game isn't graphics
When in doubt, just believe in yourself and press buttons

Sure, but the popular urban legend that the human eye can't tell the diference after 30, 40, 100 or whathever FPS is just bullshit.

Yeah, I can't really care about FPS or 720p as long as I am enjoying the game. I played a pong machine on a CRT TV a couple of weeks ago and it was awesome.

Edit: Yeah, I'm now looking at stuff and its clearly disprove. It just took a while to find links that were not for reddit posts about the subject.

there's a difference between "can't tell" and "don't notice/don't care"

for example most non IPS monitors/screens out there have inaccurate color reproduction, especially at angles - but if nobody every points it out or show them the problem it doesn't matter to most people.

30fps ceiling means that if and when fps dips it will definitely be painful (i.e. average fps vs frametime distribution). this scenario is less likely and painful when fps cap/performance is 60+

you know p6 a lot of reddit is pretty good at not bullshitting, e.g., askscience, askhistory, and some of the specialized tech oriented ones... your bias against it is reaching ad hominem levels

and the whole point of going through reddit comments is filtering for yourself what's flawed and what's not

I am sure, but all the links were to general gaming subreddits, which I avoid like the plague. I got there after some searching.

And anyone who played Dark Souls on the 360 can agree that blight town's special power was FPS drop, because god damn.

People would still whine that it wasn't 60 fps or that the resolution wasn't high enough. They did the same with with Xbox 360 when it was "true HD". Because counting lines is super interesting. Some people care about that stuff, which is great. But the drama and hand wringing around frame rates is just stupid.

the hand wringing about framerate is a big deal
i remember when apple came out with the retina display and showed diablo 3 playing at 20-25 fps and calling it 'playable', which is a fucking travesty
30 is simply too low for a fluid video game, you can't compare it to something like cinema that plays at 24fps because the platform and intended use is different. in the end you're just sacrificing end-user experience for marginally better visual quality, effects like light shafts and extra particles don't really add to gameplay and half the time the audience takes it in and moves on immediately.

i recognize that designing and running a game at 45fps is a real hassle as well because you'd be animating 1.5 frames instead of a nice 1 frame at 30 or 2 frames at 60

i worded that poorly, human eyes can 'see' a very high number of frames (something like 1000+)

but does it really matter, and can you really tell the difference between 50 and 60, or 40 and 60?
in a first person shooter like quake or cs, yes
in a top down rts or mmo or everything other than an fps, most people cannot tell the difference unless there are spikes
