Agreed. FPS was the issue in the beginning since GPUs weren’t being utilized. But since the previous patch, I’ve been enjoying the game immensely and while I’m not running a potato PC by any stretch, it’s no longer on par with this year’s leaps (■■■■ it, didn’t get a 3080) and I am still getting 40-50, at times 30 (hey) FPS and it’s running just fine.
I think it’s a combo between “reputation” of the sim from the early days of its (less-than-ideal) launch together with people being spoiled these days with framerate since rasterization is now no longer a challenge for 90% of the titles.
But I’d like to take this occasion to remind folks that just a few short years ago, 60 fps was the goal framerate to hit, and not 144 like today 
I remember gaming in first person shooter at 30+ and not dying.
