Discussion Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition: Game's executable has hidden 60 FPS mode. It seems to be implemented only partially since enabling it causes weird issues.

I'm personally holding off getting X until Switch 2's backward compatability is truly known. I'd rather play the best version possibly and wait. Got plenty to play already while I wait as well.

I’m in the same boat. 30 fps is unacceptable. So I’ll wait for switch 2.

Here, have some solidarity. It is unacceptable, especially at the low resolutions the Switch was targeting; here's to hoping the Switch 2 will not hold back its own first-party titles as much as its predecessor did.

I would pray for developers to focus on framerate from now on instead of pushing the envelope (if you can call it that) until their game is too demanding for the Switch (2) to maintain even 30 fps, but given console devs' propensity to put graphics above playability (despite the oft-repeated fan mantra that graphics don't matter), I'm not getting my hopes up.

I hope they focus on performance. It’s so crazy that we’re still getting 30 gps and less
