Is there a mod? Because Sekiro has a 60fps cap.

Only adventure games are fully enjoyable at 30 fps, lol.

I played Sekiro on ps4 and now have a ps4 pro. The ps4 pro, without measuring it but feeling and seeing it through experience with playing on the pc for 99% of the time, Holds 60fps for maybe 60-70% of the time, and sounds like a helicopter trying to push up into the air.

It's playable and enjoyable, but you do notice failure duo to low framerate in this kind of gameplay many times. I'm glad I only "have to" use a console if my pc is occupied by someone else.

yeah didnt know the pro pushed a little higher fps and yes there is something called the sekiro FPS unlocker it can render up to 120 fps for smooth gameplay.

Really, it's that bad huh... Disappointed because I was thinking about buying the game again on PS4 just for a physical copy.

The pro adds like 12 - 15 fps. Max you'll get is 47 or so, it never hits 60. And all things considered, the PS4 version still has the highest sales and highest completion rate of all versions of the game, including the PC one. So much for it being a "very hard mode".

Don't get me wrong, having less frames of visual data objectively makes it harder, but those completion rates don't lie and, unlike on PC, most people can't cheat their way to them.

I doubt a games sales is indicative of how difficult it is.

The point of mentioning sales and completion percentage is that it shows that the largest majority of players owns, played through, beat and completed the single worst performing version of the game. So, that doesn't really make it seem like a "very hard" version when you take those numbers into consideration.

I mean wasnt really referring to any of that lmao all i said is from my experience playing at 120 fps and 75 fps made a huge difference in my overall enjoyment and progress of the game over playing the ps4 version which is at 30 fps,of course its gonna have higher completion rate and sell more its a console game,I said it was like playing on very hard mode because at 30 fps its harder to read enemy attacks and react as well as many other things.

The animations are tied to the framerate. Which makes parrying on higher FPS harder that on 60 or lower. On a PC 30FPS might look ♥♥♥♥♥♥ but on consoles it looks like 60, at least thats my experience

o_O you sure about that, amigo?

Because I remember another similar game (combat mechanics-wise) that was endlessly annoying until I got a 1080Ti and a 144Hz/fps monitor. When I first started playing Jedi: Fallen Order, which has some similar combat timings for parries and deflects, I was struggling terribly. I kept thinking, I'm better than this, this shouldn't be this hard. When I upgraded to a 1080Ti and an ASUS ROG monitor that supported 144Hz refresh rates, I could suddenly easily deflect attacks that seemed impossible before. So, going from 45 fps to 144 fps made all the difference in the world for me. Even going to a solid 60 fps made it marginally better. But at 144 fps, parries started working 100% of the time. Combat was a breeze on the higher difficulties, etc.

Exactly combat intensive games play way better at 60 fps and are more responsive hence why most action games aside from from soft ware software lol target at least 60 fps.

Has not been my observation, but okay.

Played on PS4, got the Platinum, hated the game and never played again...until a few weeks ago. Tried again on my PS4, now that i'm playing on PC more often now, and realized how ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up the console version is...though i managed to beat most bosses (using the Gauntlet challenges) in less than 5 attempts. Thought i could give the game another chance on PC, and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥...so much better. 60fps without framepacing issues...now i know why that game was so difficult for me on my first try. The keyword here is framepacing. Sekiro, as most Fromsoftware games, has the frametime all over the place. You can't parry right, there's no thing such as timing and etc because it's inconsistent

Now i'm truly enjoying the game, and killing most bosses first try.

...also, 60fps or higher more difficult than lower fps? What the ♥♥♥♥...i mean, the game is more consistent and more responsive, but really, as a owner of the base PS4 game i can tell for sure that the game is horrible on console old consoles. Think they fixed that on PS5 and Xbox Series...can't say for sure about One X and Pro

Nope, fps in sekiro isnt tied to physics. I completed the game with 144fps without problems
