What’s the point of motion blur in modern games? It’s the one setting I seem to have to turn off manually in far too many games. What other settings to you change in most games? (piefed.social)

In first-person games, FOV 100°. Much less than this and it feels impossible to see what's going on, like I'm looking through binoculars.

For VR games, I always have to turn off the "comfort settings" (vignette, snap turn, etc). They're super jarring, and make me feel sick almost immediately.

That stopped me from playing OG borderlands for a long time til I found the FOV fix. Its always first on my list. Motion blur being second.
