I'm Finally Understanding Framerate Snobs...

I have never thought that the graphics or even performance (as long as the performance is consistent) make the game, but lately, I've started to understand the plights of people who complain about only having 30fps in a game.

I had a hankering to retry playing Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice which I initially bounced off of when it came out because of difficulty. Since then, I've played and completed Bloodborne live on my channel and thought I'd give Sekiro another try. I own Sekiro on XBox One and I am finding I can't even make it as far as I made it PREVIOUSLY.

I know BB and Sekiro have many differences so taking BB strats into Sekiro won't work and BB is only 30fps itself, but after a lot of attempts at the first real mini-boss, I was realizing that it was the frame rate. I wasn't getting enough frames for perception and reaction on the Xbox One version of the game.

I never thought I'd be spoiled by such things, but apparently I am.
