While PC ports are usually hampered with technical issues, it looks like Tchia is experiencing a bit of backlash due to low framerates on PlayStation consoles.

Tchia, a charming and fun game with a unique art style, has recently been released on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. However, players are voicing their dissatisfaction with the game’s performance, particularly the 30 FPS they are receiving. This issue has led to a choppy and unpleasant playing experience, overshadowing the otherwise delightful aspects of the game.

Performance Concerns

Some players have expressed disappointment over Tchia’s performance on PlayStation 5, as the console is capable of handling more demanding games at higher framerates. It is puzzling as to why Tchia, with its artistic and pixelated visuals, is unable to run at 60 FPS on the powerful next-gen console.

Some believe that reviewers who claimed the game to run smoothly might have only played the game on PC, which could offer better performance compared to the console versions.

Tchia’s development team is relatively small, which has likely affected the game’s overall budget and production capabilities. This includes the lack of physical disc production and, potentially, the limited optimization for PlayStation consoles. Despite its indie nature, Tchia has been hyped up as a significant release, leading to increased scrutiny and higher expectations from players.

Players can disable motion blur in Tchia to slightly improve performance. However, this workaround doesn’t fully address the issue, as the game still suffers from input lag and a choppy framerate. Many gamers are holding out hope for a performance patch that will make the game more playable on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, with some advising others to wait before purchasing the game until a patch is released.

Tchia’s 30 FPS on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 has left some players frustrated and disappointed, as it detracts from the otherwise captivating and enjoyable game. The game’s performance issues highlight the need for better optimization and support, particularly for titles that receive significant promotion and attention. It’s crucial for developers and console manufacturers to address these concerns and provide a smoother playing experience for gamers, ensuring that the game’s charm and appeal are not marred by technical limitations.

    You got it wrong, pc players are more likely to complain historically. Console gamers are starting to complain more as performance in modern console games is usually good.

    The game doesn’t run at 30fps on PS5 but at a unlocked frame rate sun 60 fps.

    Looks incredible. But if you want to get the most, get it on PC, forget ps5. Too bad its not on series x, that would look mind blowing…
