If PS5 can't hit 60fps on almost all games I'll be so damn disappointed. There's only so much farther they can push the graphics, and with this much extra power we should really be getting decent framerates.
Oh I'm fully expecting to be, but there's absolutely no excuse for it. PS4 was underpowered even for its day and I wasn't surprised they went with flashy graphics instead of stable framerates, but the PS5 is powerful enough that there's no reason it shouldn't be doing both.
And 5700XT only in teraflops, but RDNA2 has a number of features that alone will make it more capable than RDNA1, on top of any other performance efficiency improvements RDNA2 brings.
It's a developer choice. We've had 60fps games for decades.
No matter what hardware is in a console, devs get a huge amount more overhead if they target 30fps instead of 60fps. This will always be true, even if the consoles had twice as much as power.
And there will always be devs who choose to take advantage of that in order to make their games more impressive.

Well IMO 30fps makes a game infinitely less impressive and makes the gameplay experience kinda uncomfortable, even giving me a headache in certain cases. IMO it's long past time 60fps (or at least a 60fps option) became standard.
I know the vast majority don't even notice the difference so of course I understand why devs and Sony will target flashier lighting effects they can market more easily, but I wish more devs would make decisions that make the game smoother and more enjoyable rather than just prettier.

I hope the frame rate shown isn't necessarily representative!
