eye cant see past 60 fps so whats the point?

If youre sitting at exactly 60, any time you dip youll see frame stutter so its better to have a buffer. At some point its just for showing off/futureproofing

Even if you're using a 60 fps monitor, the faster you render your game, the lower you can reduce input lag

It's many, many games. Recent one from memory is The Turing Test.

>>376004529
What I don't understand is why is this STILL being done. You can disable the 60fps cap with the FAR mod in NieR:Automata, a game released a month ago, but it'll cause weird behavior.

>animations go slow if game isn't running at at least 60 fps

Wolfenstein the New Order did this and it really hampered my enjoyment of the game.

Can someone explain how the fuck does it work? How does high framerate impact actual game logic?

>>376004529
Name one VN that does this

>>376004529
Vice City had this i think?

>>376008339
If you sync your physics engine with the framerate, the game does certain things based on frames and not time.
So if you lock your game on 30 FPS and someone plays it at 60 it can very well be that the game plays everything twice as fast or just flat out not being able to handle it well.

It's usually the case of lazy and/or bad programming.

>It's usually the case of lazy and/or bad programming.
Only if its on PC/multiplat, its fine if its designed for a single platform.

>>376008471
A lot of old games have this.

>old game plays in super-high speed in modern systems

>>376008339
It's when devs tie calculations based on frames instead of milliseconds.

The difference between
> do X 3 frames after Y
and
> do X 0.1 seconds after Y

is nothing on a game running at 30fps. But if the game is running at 60fps those two things now mean something completly different. It's fine if you are developing for a single locked framerate, it can even be easier because everything in the game can progress on the same time system. But it fucks things to if the player can alter the franerate.

I installed the Sonic 3 & Knuckles PC port without the framelimit patch on my AMD Athlon II 220 and it still ran insanely fast. I'm afraid to see what might happen on a modern CPU.

GTA: San Andreas

Not frame rate, but I liked when changing in-game speed would fuck things up.

logic tied to framerate is archaic and developers who still do this are extremely lazy

>>376009303
Or they're Japanese.
In fact they're most likely Japanese.

>>376009387
Isnt it just a console thing.
If you always use same system to run the game futureproofing is irrelevant.

>>376004705
I cant name 2, but I can name 1, Red Faction 1, a crucial submarine explodes in midair if the framerate is too high, cant say if this remains when the Pure Faction patch is applied though
