Quoting: Purple Library GuyWasn't tearing supposed to be a bad thing? Why are we trying to make it happen now?
Vsync (the thing that fixes tearing) can cause a lot of latency and can be noticeable especially in fast paced games.

People who don't notice it either don't play those games or are old. ;)

I used to disable vsync/compositing even on Windows: Using non-aero theme. And it made the gameplay always more smoother and gave more perf for the game instead of doing some fancy stuff for my desktop that wasn't in my focus at all.

I had someone post a game I made (it's free on itch.io) to steam. This happens probably way more often for us small name hobbyists and indies, so make sure to double check especially if you see a small game that it's uploaded by right person.

I'll give it a go, but knowing Nexon is part of it, it's likely gonna die a MTX death sooner than people expect.

I've modded Skyrim with fun stuff like the Precision mod that makes combat more accurate and impactful. When I finally got through modding it, I have been hooked to it!
