Does Elden Ring on Switch 2 run well?

I didn't expect a a great performance or graphics. But I was honestly disappointed. The textures looked bad and while the demo only let you play until the tutorial area, the game lagged heavily during the supposed to die boss fight. Right when I prepared to dodge roll, the game lagged and suddenly I got hit.

Yes, the Nintendo Switch OLED is capable of 60fps and 1080p resolution when docked to a TV, but whether a specific game runs at 60fps depends on the game's development, with many first-party titles often hitting 60fps while some demanding games drop to 30fps or lower, especially in handheld mode where resolution and frame rates are often reduced for performance. The OLED model has the same internal hardware as the original, so its performance ceiling is the same, though the superior screen makes games look smoother.

Is it better to have 30 or 60 fps?

Yes, 60fps is generally better than 30fps for smoothness, especially in fast-paced gaming and capturing slow-motion video, but 30fps (or 24fps) offers a more cinematic feel and can be better for slower content, while 60fps uses more resources and provides less light capture per frame. The "better" choice depends on the context: 60fps provides fluid motion for responsive gaming (FPS, action) and smooth slow-mo, while 30fps is sufficient for less demanding games (puzzle) and offers a classic cinematic look, notes Quora users and GameMaker forum members.

Why am I capped at 60fps?

Your FPS is likely capped at 60 because of V-Sync, your monitor's 60Hz refresh rate, or a game/driver setting, with V-Sync often locking FPS to match your screen's refresh rate to prevent screen tearing. To fix it, try disabling V-Sync in-game and in your GPU control panel, ensuring your Windows display settings and cable support a higher refresh rate (like 120Hz/144Hz), and checking for in-game FPS limits.
