Screen quality does matter. I get that point. But I also think people are underestimating the impact of fps on gameplay.

Exactly. I was always on the 30fps side, good enough, give me a stable picture first.
Yet after playing Horizon FW in performance pro mode last night, best of both worlds, 60 fps AND a sharp stable picture, game changer for me. Now I can always choose performance mode without any visible degradation of the image.

But the 'other camp' is correct as well. Fidelity mode at 30 fps doesn't look any better from the couch than performance mode. I don't see the difference, which is great for me, just choose performance mode. But if you were expecting to be wowed by better graphics in quality mode, prepare to sit a lot closer!



Now last night I got stuck on a side quest in Burning Shores. I need to find tracks but can't remember how top get into focus mode. I've been fighting machines without the highlight weak points all this time as I can't figure out which button combination to press.

The controls menu doesn't help, but I now see online that you can hold down R3 instead of just pinging it. Maybe that's it. Ugh I hate coming back to games with complex control schemes.

Lot of eye candy at a fluid 60 fps to enjoy on the pro, but still stuck lol.


I got the PsApp working again after installing a 64 bit instance for BlueStacks (I don't have a smart phone, I refuse)
Still way easier to buy a USB-C stick, so many steps getting a screenshot off the PS5 nowadays!
(Save to PsApp on PS5, Save to media folder on PsApp in Bluestacks, Save to Windows from media folder on BlueStacks, all one by one)

Somewhere in the base game, performance pro mode


Burning shores


The waves rolling onto the beach look amazing in performance pro mode.



You can spot the difference between performance and fidelity mode when you zoom in on detail.

30 fps mode


60 fps mode

(I think that's the right order, might be reversed lol)

Anyway not useless at launch. But very expensive just to play fidelity PS5 base mode in performance mode.
