There’s an architecture to avoid this by decoupling the simulation tickrate from the renderer.

The really simple way is to just pass a delta milliseconds to each system so it can simulate the right amount of time.

But yeah, it was wild how DS2 at 60fps fundamentally altered a lot of things like weapon durability and jump distance.

From seems to be guilty of this even today. Eldenring recently had a dog that did more bite damage at higher fps. I guess they're just ticking damage every frame the dog head and the player collider overlap.

I’m currently close to abandoning bannerlord, a medieval combat game where less latency gives you a better chance in MP.

Isn't that how it's supposed to be? If you have a good connection, you get the game state earlier than someone with a worse connection.
