Facial Animations Too Fast

[Romão]

I doubt guerilla is looking into this, they done with this port but are any modders aware of this issue? The animations are fps linked, so when you have high fps, people look like addicts begging for a good time, they blink so fast you can't even notice. And 30fps lock is not a good solution either, but it's the only way the animations get "fixed".

This should've been patched out around 1.04 or so. Refresh your game files.

Wrong. The animations were locked at 30fps on launch, they unlocked it through the patches, but with this they introduce one big problem, the eye movement and blinking are faster the higher your fps. If you lock your game at 30 the eyes moves at normal speed, at 60 you begin to notice somethings off and when you have 120+ like I do, people look like junkies. Just test it yourself if you do not believe me.

I lock fps at 60 and don't see this issue ... what fps are you running it at?

Lock the fps at 30, look the eye movement and blinking speed on a cutscene then lock at 60 and you see what I'm talking about.

I guess this will never be fixed, I just watched a hzd ps5 video with the 60fps patch, and it has the exact same issue, eyes darting like crazy. Thanks for the answers anyway guys.

Well, there IS a patch on the way. Though we don't know what it's about.

Well, compared the PS5 patch to PS4 side by side from Digital Foundry, and they are the same speed. So if the PS5 version is same as PC for animations, wouldn't that means they are correct?

Edit:
Just tested, there's no difference between 30 FPS and 100+

Same experience in "Cutscenes" as well, if need a video of that too.

You kidding right? How can't you see the difference? The eye movement and blink speed specialy on aloy is unmissable man, her eyes dart like hell at 100+ fps. I have a save right before you talk to rost and ran a test a few hours ago, there's no mistake there. They should left at least the eye movement locked at 30fps. But whatever man, the ps5 have the same issue, I doubt they would fix it now.

EDIT: I'm talking about in game conversations here, not gameplay or cutscenes. I wrote cutscenes but it's not what I meant sorry for the confusion. On conversations the characters eyes moves way too fast with unlocked fps, that's what I mean.

EDIT 2: There's a reddit post talking about it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/horizon/comments/jhrxm4/suggestions_to_the_devs_please_fix_facial/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

No fix apparently, which is wild for such a simple but obvious thing, that many years after release.
Running this game at 165FPS feels great, but as soon as there is a dialog, it ruins the immersion. People look demented, high on speed. Even at 60, it's unsettling.

The only manageable way for me (but it's still tedious), is to use RTSS with Hotkeyhandler plugin and cap frame rate to 30 during dialog and switch back during gameplay, using keyboard shortcuts.

But then, you have to deal with a jump from 165Fps gameplay to 30 Fps dialog, which is frankly brutal.
