Frame Generation Masks 60 FPS Claims in Lego Batman, but Native FPS Falls Short

The article argues TT Games is using frame generation to advertise 60 FPS for Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, even though native rendering is as low as 1440p/30 FPS and 635p/30 FPS on minimum hardware, with frame generation often reducing actual render rates. While output looks smoother, latency increases, making the experience feel like 30 FPS (or 15 FPS at the minimum) rather than a true 60 FPS. Frame generation should be optional and not used to mask poor optimization; the move to Unreal Engine 5 has raised PC performance concerns, and developers should optimize for real native performance rather than rely on generated frames to inflate perceived performance.
