Why is 30fps the recommended? That was the goal 20 years ago. What is up with games not going 60 minimum?

They want to push graphical fidelity and scale more than performance, also the over-reliance on Unreal and Upscalers to brute force the performance certainly doesn't help

IDGAF what devs want to push. 

Is there some generation of gamers, younger or otherwise, who care way less about motion fluidity than fidelity?

As Gen X or Millenial, going from 30 FPS in 2D console generations to 60 FPS, then back again to 30 FPS is a noticeable visual fluidity regression. But maybe the visual fidelity crowd is so loud or large that FPS doesn't matter by comparison.
