So it sounds like they are targeting frame rate for Ps5 and resolution for the Series X

Yep. And we've seen a similar situation on several other games already, devs seem to be ok with a higher resolution and lower framerate on Series X, due to VRR support on Xbox I'm guessing, which is kind of an odd choice since not a ton of gamers have VRR capable screens yet. Looking at the numbers here, 1260p-1800p on PS5 at 59-60 fps and 1440p-2080p on Series X at 50-60 fps, it seems to me like Series X and PS5 would be virtually neck and neck on resolution, graphics settings, and framerate if the devs lowered the resolution target on Series X to the same resolution target as PS5. But we'll have to wait and see what the devs do during the final month of optimization ahead of full release, maybe they can get the Series X framerate up closer to 60 fps without the need to reduce resolution, and maybe they can increase PS5 resolution without hurting it's framerate. Will be interesting to see which console comes out on top in a month, or if they will be neck and neck.

If you're talking about average consumers that buy systems without considering or even knowing about features like VRR, they probably won't notice slight dips in framerate to the 50s. If you bought a new tv for Series X and willingly overlooked VRR as not that important, well you're free to curse at a mirror over your sub-optimal experience.

Have no problems with devs attempting to reap the full benefits of the hardware. It's being sold and marketed as a premium product with features like VRR and 120hz, so I'd want devs to actually make use of them. That's just me.
