No one is scouring anything to nitpick.I certainly care about it when it affects gameplay.
I just haven’t had the experience you’re describing. The game plays great. Resolution is a valid complaint although considering how dense the environments are it’s kind of understandable. Few games can pull off what horizon zero Dawn does.
The game is very fun, not sure why people are scouring the internet to nitpick. It’s selling incredibly well, has a cool story, great enemy design, and the combat is very engaging and has plenty of layers of depth as you progress.
The performance of the game was reported on just like every other game.
If an action game fluctuating between 30fps and 45fps doesn’t bother you, then you don’t really care about framerate
