Targeting 60fps but with how much success? Even the PS2 version targeted 60fps, just it usually ran somewhere around 15fps. From the brief trailer this is clearly better than that but if it hits it's targets with the same consistency as FFXV then performance mode might be worse than cinematic mode.

Still, I love the game, I'll definitely be buying it for the 3rd time.

If the trailer you are talking about is the one they have been showing or every single showing of the game? What you are looking at is the game running in cinematic mode and targeting 30fps not 60fps.

Kinda just points at why I think this whole FPS thing is pointless. Most people don't even know what they are looking at. My take, I don't care if you run at 30/60fps. As long as its locked and steady. 

I can't say that fps is pointless, even if most don't realise the difference.

I always prefer 60fps, but it's no deal breaker. I agree that a consistent locked framerate is better than a fluctuating one which is what I am referring to in my comment, the original game was crazy with frame drops and this is obviously better. But what I'm interested in is how consistently the performance mode hits 60fps, like I said FFXV tries this but it's up and down so much that the locked cinematic mode is better there (on current hardware). From what I can see in trailers there don't seem to be severe fluctuations but obviously trailers could select the best performing areas.

If its a good performance mode, I'll definitely be very happy with that. If it sucks then I hope cinematic is steady and I'll enjoy that. I'd really like some additional options to customize how the game looks and performs that go deeper than broad performance or cinematic modes. Consoles games should be able to adjust settings like a PC game.
