Recommended baseline
Texture quality depends on VRAM/storage. Great with controller UI.
- Start with the in-game low/medium preset, then raise textures if VRAM allows.
- Use a frame cap before lowering resolution; stable frame pacing usually feels better than spiky peaks.
- For travel, target 30-40 FPS and reduce screen brightness before making the game ugly.
Lab note: We do not invent benchmark numbers. Pages are marked as baseline recommendations until direct test notes are added.
