Yeah, there have been so many times during gameplay I've said "man, this crazy scenario I somehow concocted by tossing a lazer cannon glued to a fan into the middle of a group of bad guys sure is fun—but if it were just running at 10fps more I could really enjoy it."

The game looks and plays great. Most people won't notice framerate. You don't have to either.

The point addressed was the visuals, not how fun something is or is not.

Dude, someone said it looks fantastic, a purely subjective observation. And then you disagreed. It seems disingenuous for you to start disputing someone's logic.

Subjectivity versus objectivity. We can measure framerate and resolution, and for a 2023 title, it's really not ticking the boxes on what "fantastic" visuals are in modern gaming from AAA. The hardware struggles to run the game, let's be real.

In typical Nintendo Zelda fashion, it will probably get released on next-gen hardware in the future and run a lot better.

It's OK to say it is below expectations for the price point, publisher, developer, and competing product. It's just a performance spec.

Every aspect of a video game is in the service of fun.

You might want to familiarize yourself with Skinnerian psychology and addiction versus fun.
