Higher visuals truly matter for gamers these days. Imagine running and firing bullets at your opponents in a realistic WW2 battle, when suddenly your game’s visual frames just broke! A true nightmare, isn’t it? That is why popular games like Call of Duty: Warzone to Fortnite try to offer at least 60 FPS for the gameplay. However, Bethesda’s Todd Howard surely made a great buzz about Starfield, when he announced the game’s locked lower FPS. Surprised? If yes, then don’t be! This is because despite some fans complaining about stuttering, the Starfield community was quite pleased with the game’s visuals. 

Now that Starfield’s developers rocked the game with 30 lock FPS, fans wonder whether all upcoming big, budgeted role-playing games can do the same. And given that, Rockstar’s upcoming Grand Theft Auto 6 came as a non-surprising example to the discussion. But does everybody think the same?
