Final Fantasy 7 Rebirthis out worldwide and gamers, those on PlayStation 5 at least, are having the time of their lives but faced with a decision to favor either framerate or resolution, an issue thatMirror’s Edgedoesn’t have despite being an old Xbox 360 title that can achieve a crispy 4K resolution with 60 frames per second thanks to the backward compatibility on the Xbox Series X which makes theStarfieldsituation a little more awkward.
Games nowadays look even better than they have before and some may say better than real life, however, they struggle at running games with high frame rates and resolution. Developers have given users on modern consoles the option to either go for a better performance which will affect the resolution and vice versa.
Performance Or Resolution: Which Matters More In Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?
There is no denying that the hype surrounding the release of the second chapter of theFinal Fantasy 7 Remaketrilogy is through the roof, players want to jump right in immediately.

Others consider having to choose to favor graphics over performance to be a much bigger deal.

This an unfortunate reality for people who want to experience the best of both worlds, but for those who aren’t too keen on these sorts of things, it doesn’t take away any enjoyment factor a game can give.
Mirror’s Edge Schools Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth and Starfield
The intense combat inFinal Fantasy 7 Rebirthmakes the performance mode a much more reasonable and practical way to play, the visuals will still look remarkable regardless. This correlates to the never-ending debate that game developers should prioritize what the game needs, for shooter titles or any competitive game, the obvious choice would also be performance.

Mirror’s Edgeis a shining example of how incredible a game could look with a 62 frame rate cap and running on 4K resolution, it was a boost from the incredible power of the Xbox Series X hardware, anything can look next-gen on that beast of a machine, so how come Starfield can’t? DirectorTodd Howardshares it was always Bethesda’s priority to do so.
At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how it looks or how it runs if the game itself is bad in quality, do you prefer better performance over a higher resolution? Let us know in the comments below!
