Why does Frame Generation say I am getting 60fps but it doesn't look or feel like it? (yiffit.net)

Playing Ghost of Tsushima and just trying to get the best settings for my machine and was suggested to use high preset with resolution scaling off and frame Gen on.

It certainly makes the FPS counter say it's 60fps now when it would constantly dip to 40, but it doesn't feel or look smooth at all. I can get 60fps without frame Gen in much of the game, and turning it off in those areas looks smoother and feels nicer.

I've never used frame generation in anything else before so I don't know if this is normal or what's going on. Would it feel better if I uncapped the frame rate and turned off vsync?

Vsync is often the culprit of laggy feeling. I keep it off unless I get distracting screen tearing. Typically with a high enough frame rate it doesn't seem noticeable to me.
