120fps category for quest optimizer

Hello, I would like to recommend if you could add the 120 fps option in some Quest Optimizer games, this option is useful for when you want to lend your headset to an inexperienced person to be able to choose this option and avoid dizziness, or there are also several games that have low quality and it would be nice if we could play it with that speed easily. I don't think it will be very difficult to implement since there are not so many games that allow this, but it would be greatly appreciated and would add value to the application. Srry for my english

I hope you like it, thank you!

Hi, I understand what you mean but here is my answer :

- motion sickness is in majority due to virtual locomotion, and virtual world apprehension, not only because of frame rate. Yes a higher frame rate can help in some dynamic games, but dynamic games are not really recommended for beginners. Anyway, today and by default, 90-95% of the games run at 72hz which is still the basis refresh rate even on very popular games. More and more developers tends to implement 90Hz but almost only on Quest 3. But beginners also play on Q2 for example. So if the motion sickness was very impacted by refresh rate, you could imagine that meta would have forbidden 90% of the games.

- each games are different, that is why I can spend hours and days to optimize one game. And even many low quality or low res or low poly games can't handle 120fps because it is too heavy to handle by the Quest 3. So, with a "Enable 120Hz mode for beginner" button, it will not be a magic solution and instead of having smoothness games you will end up with laggy games and that will be a very bad idea and experience for beginners. If a game run at 120Hz but the headset is not capable to render 120 images per seconds, even with boosted CPU and GPU, you will end up with lags. So, this is a good idea but it's not feasible unfortunately.

I hope you are okay with that :-)

Thanks for answering!

Of course, this is exactly what I meant by saying that it would not be difficult to implement since there would be very few titles that would support this, for example:

Super hot (I understand it can run at that speed on q2)
Beat saber and other rhythm (I think it would be useful to play the higher difficulties)
I spect you to die (they can be other escape rooms too)
walkabout maybe
Wip gun
job simulator
yupitergrad
zuma
The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets
Puzzling places
Ocean Rift
richies plank
tactical assault
vr fishing
Eleven table tennis

Some pool

And perhaps the implementation was misunderstood, it would not be something for beginners but rather one more category in these few titles:

+battery
HD
HD+
120p

By the way, excellent product, you can feel the real difference between the Q2 and Q3, I recommended it to 2 friends and they are equally satisfied.
