Nvidia recommends to use frame gen when the game already does 40 or 60fps (it's in the HU video but I'm not going to watch it again for this), sp, why doesn't Nvidia lock the option down in such a way that it can only be enabled if the game already meets those minimim requirements that they establish?

Sure, it's Telltale's fault for using it "wrong", but if the option is there, they, as well as others, will use and abuse it. That's how things sadly work.

In the end, this is a "blame the gun or the gunner" situation, and the gunner is always the one to blame. But Nvidia is the one giving the guns without limiting what can be done with them.

I'll agree to disagree on that one. They could lock it down sure but they are providing the tools to developers to use the way they see fit. If they don't provide the tools, someone else will.. In this case, FSR and XeSS both have frame gen so why should Nvidia be the only one to lock theirs out?

Nvidia locks down the features they want, like deciding which cards can use a certain tech and which can't. And I'm talking among their own products, nor the ones from other vendors.

And it's not about Nvidia locking it down leaving AMD and Intel free to do whatever they want. They should also lock it down. Of course they should! But we all know that, thanks to its marketshare, Nvidia is the one that sets the trend with these things and that if they do it, the others will follow.

By the way, it's amazing how no one noticed or made a point about it but, those 30fps with FG in the min, requirements list a GTX 960. That card can't use DLSS nor FG. It's using either FSR or XeSS to achieve that, yet all the discussion has been around Nvidia.

It goes to show how much Nvidia and FG are interconnected and proves my point that all should lock this down, not just Nvidia.
