    Any FPS is playable if you lower your standards enough. But most PC gamers would consider 60 FPS the minimum low bar.

      Ever since the Steam Deck got released and local streaming services like Parsec or Sunshine/Moonlight have been created, I’ve noticed you can comfortably play games on lower frame rates, when your screen takes less of your view.

      On PC I need to have at least 90 FPS to say a game runs smoothly, but I can play the same game on my phone/laptop via streaming at much lower frame rate and still not complain about the smoothness.

      Playing Cyberpunk on a 6.7" smartphone display at 30 FPS will most definitely feel much less responsive than running it on PC at +60 FPS, but it may not be a bad experience.

      I still find it impressive it’s possible to play a (somewhat) modern x86 Windows game on an Android smartphone. Imagine telling this to someone 10-15 years ago
