They showed a lot of combat
It was 13 seconds by my count and a star fight for 2 seconds without a hud. That ain't shite
I watched a 3 minute trailer. Is that the only game play trailer?

I'll see my noob arse out the door.
I'm so sorry.

At least you weren't going on a weird anti-starfield crusade like that one guy

I was so confused because my friend sent me the 3 min video. I text him back like dude there's a much better one.

My expectations took a slight dip. Freaking trailer was stuttering.

What if some us like to smooth talk our way through an RPG?

Apparently 60 FPS on consoles is a challenge in general. This is from the FFXVI demo.

I keep hearing this, maybe I'm not as in tune with this like most but I never noticed any stuttering.

It's not really the action persay, the environment is what's stuttering on what I'm watching.

Ugh, so what's the solution for someone who prefers couch gaming? Gaming PC with a really long HDMI cable to the tv where the couch is?

Or put a TV in your computer room with your PC and get a cheap couch?

I mean, hooking up a PC to a big screen is pretty common, I've seen.
ETA I know there have been some complaints about it, and I know it's a Switch, but Tears of the Kingdom is pretty much 30 FPS and I feel it plays just fine.

Hell my LG OLED 77inch TV has G-Sync built in and 120mhz refresh.
Wife went shopping Saturday and came home to me having pulled my gaming PC into the living room and hooked it up to the TV playing Diablo IV.
That didn't last long.

Game looks great, but can I kill people in it tho? (PVP?)

Single player game. Bethesda's bread and butter.
I do hope they eventually allow you to upload and download ship builds, like allow you to see someone else's creation and perhaps fly it around in a separate mode or something.

Nah. Half these companies just suck at optimization.

I'm pretty clueless when it comes to this 30 FPS vs 60 FPS thing. I know people always talk about it and then the game comes out and I just play it and I think the game either sucks or it doesn't but it never regards what I am visually seeing if that makes sense. Is it because I'm not 2 inches from a screen?
Can anyone recommend a YouTube video maybe explaining it? I have just always ignored that stuff and just played the game. Maybe I'm just that old guy growing up on the NES so anything to me visually is still amazing?

No, resolution matters far more in questions of distance. Low framerate can make the game look more like a slideshow than smooth action. With that said, the dirty little secret is that a stable 30fps will generally look better than 60fps that frequently dips to 50fps. Your brain will register that as a "stutter" more easily than it can notice the lower framerate. But, if you get low enough, things will look like a slideshow no matter how stable the framerate is. Anything below about 50fps becomes annoyingly noticeable to me, but that's purely personal opinion.
In short, all things equal, more frames = more better. But outside of extremes, stable framerate is more important than high framerate.
