@siege For me it's an immersion thing.
If I play (albeit non-competitive) shooter like Warframe, I do enjoy 60fps as the gameplay can get hectic at times, especially in endgame where visual effects can over-clutter the screen :D
But if I'm playing an immersive experience like Skyrim, Fallout, Bannerlord or Red Dead Redemption 2, I wanna soak in the atmosphere. At that point, a steady cinematic framerate feels more fitting as it calms things down a bit! :3
