Framegen is shit.

I tried it with Phantom Blade Zero and the lag is so bad I was struggling with bosses with FG on vs off.
framegen is incredible. Maybe you are trying it from too low fps.
around 45 native fps and it starts being good.
Anything above 50-60 and it's amazing.

I legit prefer some artifacting but smooth game rather than just 45fps game
 
IMO, no gaming experience is flawless, as you mention price is a big factor right now, but markets can shift.

Tinkering complaints are wildly overstated though. Most modern releases run well, and many even detect hardware and automatically select the best graphics settings.
if pcs were (MUCH) cheaper right now, it would be no competition.
As it is now, ps5 pro is 1500 euro here in Poland if you can even find it.
5070 is around 1000 euro if you can find it.
5080 is almost 2 fucking thousand euro.

its insane. on all fronts. pc console everything is fucked

Hardware is pretty expensive across the board right now, as you say.

We're probably at least a year out from things stabilizing, but anyone who's already set with a decent rig can likely weather the storm.

This is a lie. It might look or feel amazing to you but framegen only makes sense if your base framerate is 90 or above if you want to avoid penalties to input lag.

Framegen also softens the image quality. It was very perceptible when playing Gears E-Day.
 
Frame gen is best when you're already achieving a playable framerate with it disabled.

Like if you 4x frame gen a 15 fps game, things'll look weird, but if you do the same on a game already at 60fps, it can look a lot smoother.

I often play with it disabled only because I take a lot of screenshots and sometimes identify slight visual artifacts in the screen capture which were imperceptible to me during gameplay.
I prefer to use DLSS performance and/or tone down global illumination/shadows/shaders than to use FG to boost framerates.

a lie my fucking ass.
I thought the same about framegen before I fucking tried it when I finally got a 5080 last year.

Even fast games like doom the dark ages. you can play with path tracing thanks to it.
Put on performance dlss, you get around 50fps. put on x4 framegen you get around 150fps and it's incredible.
it looks and almost feels like a real 150fps.

Surely better than 50-60fps. Like... feels and looks so much better even if in theory it should be more laggy.

And thats a common opinion. If you think it's trash and you need 90fs, you are delusional.
I am playing on 4k oled 32" 240hz monitor. I will take any framegen over even 60fps.
It is what makes modern pc gaming really great.

EVEN IF IT GOT SOME image quality drawbacks, it beats the shit out of native fps.

It's like saying coke zero is bad for you... no shit the sugar in real coke is even worse :P

I'm not sure what games you're playing that have such a steep requirement for input lag, except maybe competitive FPS?

I totally get the drawbacks to the technology, but I think this criticism is a bit hyperbolic. If you're playing at base 90FPS already, I don't even know why you'd use frame gen at that point.
 
You have a base ps5 to play gta?

I personally wouldn’t sell the pro until ps6 comes out and you can trade them
No. I only have a pro.
I am not super interested in gta. I didnt like 5 too much but I loved 4.

I would probably regret it if I sold it though... and then felt fomo when gta6 releases

Man this is amazing to finally see! 🔥
Looks like Sony is slowly adding it to older games too.

Guess it's a necessary thing to put those type of Q&A because of how they messed up. Hope its only temporary thing they put those in their sites. Eventually PC word need to be deleted and abolished forerever from their vocabulary and websites.
 
Not on ps4 seemed to be what's it for
Well, it says "PlayStation" instead of "PlayStation 5". So I think that -like when they did use it the past- could be used for crossgen or PS4 only games too.

In the past here they did use it for PS4 games, even for DS which ended getting released on PC, Xbox and iOS:

So maybe means "Not available in non-PS (and maybe PC) consoles at launch". Leaving possible -even if very unlikely or not planned or considered at the moment of marketing the slogan- future ports out of the sentence just in case they decide to make or release them later, who knows if to protect themselves as getting sued somewhere by somebody retarding false advertising or something like that.

Who knows. And well, in any case plans change from time to time. Many years ago to see Sony publishing stuff -at least certain game types- on PC or rival consoles sounded as a fantasy.
