Im that person, who get headache by games with less than 60 frames per sec (also by flashing lights, but thats offtop). And there are some games on sale, that look pretty intresting, but contain no information about framerate restrictions on pcgamingwiki. To avoid spamming with posts (and since nobody read subforums of games anyway), I've decided to make this thread, in order to ask if games below are fps locked to something lower than 60 frames:
https://www.gog.com/game/tzar_the_burden_of_the_crown
https://www.gog.com/game/war_wind_ii_human_onslaught
https://www.gog.com/game/port_royale_2
https://www.gog.com/game/disciples_2_gold
https://www.gog.com/game/warrior_kings

Please, if you own some of them and have software to check framerate - post related information below. Thanks

Tzar: The Burden of the Crown and Port Royale 2 are surely locked at 30. Maybe lower.

Most of those games are 2d spritebased and have fixed animations, which means if they would run at 60fps they would be too fast for playing. You will get a lot more migraine playing these at too high framerates.
The thing that cause headaches isn't low framerate but an unstable eratic framerate (and sometimes low fov) which high framerates are more likely to cause if the hardware or software isn't up to the task.

Actually, I get headache not from 30fps animations, but from 30fps interface. It just feels wrong
Okay, its old now, but I've googled that disciples 2 dont have a FPS limiter (unsure if its true tho)
By the way - does anybody know if this game feature some fps lock? https://www.gog.com/game/lionheart_legacy_of_the_crusader
I´ve just tried out Tzar, Disciples2,Lionhead and WarriorKings:
All of them have their interfaces running in 60 FPS. But the scrolling in Lionhead & Disciples isn´t that smooth, might turn out as a problem for you.
Don´t own the rest.
