so i've been a pc gamer my whole life, always on high refresh rate monitors and competitive stuff. bought a ps5 basically just for gta 6. figured i'd get used to the console thing.

tried the crew motorfest and god of war on the 30fps quality modes and honestly it felt rough. like actual input lag, everything sluggish. i was starting to worry that gta 6 at 30 would be a mess for me.

then i downloaded gta v on the ps5 and switched it to the 30fps mode. and it's weird, there's almost no input lag. yeah it's still 30 frames but it feels completely different from those other games. responsive, smooth enough, i actually enjoyed it.

so what's the deal? why does gta v at 30 feel fine but crew motorfest and god of war feel like dragging my cursor through mud? is it rockstar's frame pacing or something with their engine? i used to think 30fps gta 6 would be a dealbreaker for me but after this i'm honestly not bothered at all.

anyway just wanted to share because i know a lot of pc players are stressing about the console only launch and the 30fps thing. turns out rockstar might know what they're doing.
