I was initially sceptical of it due to the input latency impact but now that I've tried it I think the tech is so incredible that it feels like magic. Said latency impact is actually small and for that slight sacrifice you get a massive boost to visual smoothness so it's perfect for playing a demanding game on a display that is 240hz or higher.
I tried it properly for the first time in Forza Horizon 6 and thought it worked super well there though was still unsure how well it'd work with something like a fast paced FPS but 4x frame gen let me play Doom: The Dark Ages at 240fps max settings aside from path tracing with basically no issue aside from the input latency which was hard to notice so I am now a massive believer in it.
It'll be how super high refresh rate displays like 1000hz ones will be able to show that many frames for games that are even remotely demanding. DLSS upscaling is also incredible for letting you get close to 4K image quality from native 1080p but frame gen might be even more impressive and magic like to me. It'll be how the next gen consoles will be able to consistently offer 120fps modes and in the coming years it'll be possible to use it to go from 100fps to 1000fps with little drawback. It is kinda a rich gets richer feature though since the higher the base frame rate is the better, for example 60 to 240 will work way better than 30 to 120 so its biggest flaw is not being that good for lower end hardware yet.
