I was talking to a friend a couple of days ago. We are both PC gamers, so we were chatting about game performance, visual effects, and how we play our games.

That was when he said: "I always turn off motion blur wherever I can. It's a useless effect. It's just a waste of performance."

However, he's not the first person I see that don't like Motion Blur. There's a lot of gamers out there that shares the opinion of my friend.

What do you think? Well, as for me, I kinda enjoy it in racing games, like the screenshot above. But I turn it off if I wanna more performance. Otherwise, I don't mind it too much.

I always turn it off. Will not play a game with motion blur as it can cause me uneasiness for long duration of play.

First Person games where they use motion blur when you turn quickly is annoying. I think Dead Island Remastered did this quite a lot. It's often used as a trick to try and hide low framerates when moving the camera so you'll see it more often in 30fps or sub 30fps games like this.

I usually like motion blur in racing games though.

Off. I don't see blurry when driving.

Motion blurr is something I don't understand. Why add it in the first place? It obscures the game's details and causes dizzyness.

I hate it turn it off any chance i get

Any type of blur is bad. I was looking at NBA2K18 on Switch vs PS4 and I hate that the PS4 backgrounds are blurred out while Switch's are clear. I first remember seeing blur in racing games and Pro Evolution Soccer on Wii and I thought it was tacky then and I still believe it to be tacky today.

Ew no.

nope nope nope

Framebuffer accumulation motion blur. = Shit. - Was popular during the 6th gen. - Will always turn it off.

Per-Pixel and Per-Object motion blur steps it up significantly, which was popularized during the 7th gen... And depending on game will happily leave it on, really depends how many samples they throw at the problem.
