What’s the point of motion blur in modern games? It’s the one setting I seem to have to turn off manually in far too many games. What other settings to you change in most games? (piefed.social)

Yup, motion blur goes off, bloom gets cranked way, way down (a tiny bit I'm ok with), chromatic aberration, film grain, or basically any filter meant to imitate the effects of older camera technology gets shit-canned. FoV usually needs to get cranked up, music volume is pushed down to 50% or lower. After that it's usually a dance of getting mouse/controller sensitivity adjusted and min-maxing the graphics settings a bit to have good graphics and ok framerates. Then there is the final key-bindings adjustments, though those often take a while of gameplay to sort out.
