30 fps vs 60 fps
So I was trying out the 60 fps update and it runs great! It feels super smooth and it's awesome. The only thing I noticed was multidashing seemed a lot harder and much tighter of a window. I switched back to 30 fps because of this. Anybody else expierence this too?

Nope, it's been tested and confirmed that multi-dashing has pretty much the exact window. If anything, 60fps has a tiny tiny extra window, so technically it should be easier.

Maybe you are like me, and got used to 30 frames when using inputs. But not going back now, 60 fps is the way to go.

I still wait the 60fps update for linux.. buuu.. the 30fps gives me the motion sickness after about 10 minutes.

I'm glad you are enjoying the game! :steamhappy:

If you're experiencing motion sickness, try sitting further away from your screen.

I never had any troubles out of it at 30fps. It's funny, and sad, that the same people who hated on 30fps are now acting like the game's been awesome all along. They're petulent, childish technophiles. 2D games in particular don't need 60fps, but instead they (like all games) need consistent framerate, which this game has had since it came out.

I agree consitency is more important. I can't sit any further away from the screen though.. I have a large desk, very deep. Honestly I could feel it straight away.. at the same time I can play Enter the Gungeon for hours and have no ill effects.. it's the only game I have to equate this to.
