  They just announced Stellar Blade will be launching with a Frame-Gen toggle as well!

  Since there is a cost to frame gen it feels like we could have gotten a 40fps mode instead for switch 2 titles instead of 60 but with fg

  Lol presumably Shift Up were waiting for this upload before announcing an option to disable frame generation and lock at 30fps.

  I am one of those people who have asked for a glossary for years. Even just a page on the site cataloging the videos that have explained various topics. You're right about it not being realistic to have to explain things every time, but as a fan I want to understand your content as much as I can. It's a huge reason as to why I have been a supporter over multiple console generations.

  Shift Up JUST announced a Frame Gen toggle for the full Switch 2 release of Stellar Blade so you can turn it on/off and then this Direct shows up lol

  Making a video to break down the common terms you use is a fantastic idea! I look forward to it.

  Mfw I get to enjoy my favourite postprocessing effects like film grain, vignetting and chromating aberration on an OLED monitor with film grain (matte coating), vignetting and achromatic aberration (non-standard sub-pixel structure) already built into it for an extra cinematic feel.

  I could identify any DF cast based on their inhales

  On the discussion in question 3 where Oliver brings up the idea that some people want a Digital Foundary glossary, I feel like Tech Focus and other videos that exist to inform about real-time rendering concepts did a good job functioning like this in some cases. There's a fair amount of frequent DF subject matter that I didn't understand much until seeing the Tech Focus episode. Maybe a continuation of Tech Focus and/or converting the information to the website could be a nice stand-in for a comprehensive glossary.
