Cuz I could care less... would 60 FPS be cool? Yeah but it’s no big deal to me

Because a good game is a good game regardless of what platform or frames per second it has.

PS4 pro sucks and bungo can't have the game running much better on the capable Xbox X.

Because the consoles don't have the powerful enough CPUs to run big, open-world games at 60fps without having to sacrifice other major aspects of the game experience. In the case of Destiny it would have meant having to settle for smaller play spaces, with fewer, dumber enemies. Even conventional shooters that do hit 60fps, do so at a cost. Games like Halo 5 and Titanfall 2 do it by sacrificing resolution. Titanfall ran at only 710p on the original Xbox 1....and still had to sacrifice background detail to reduce CPU load. Halo had such obnoxious "texture popping" that it used to give me a headache and make me slightly nauseous to play the game. Battlefield 1 is not a true 60fps. It is NOTORIOUS for having really bad problems with frame rate drops. Especially if you're tyring to play it on anything other than PS4 pro or Xbo 1X. Bottomline? Unless you're playing an online competitive shooter (because refresh rates are usually synched to frame rates) or playing a game with very fast moving objects that you need to be able to see very clearly (like racing games). High frame rates don't really have that much of an impact on game performance. So it comes down to what you're used to seeing.....and what you're willing to trade to get a certain framerate. If you're used to seeing 60fps or greater.....moving to 30 fps is jarring. If you're used to seeing 30 fps.....moving to 60 fps or greater can be irritating and feel "cartoony" and "unrealisitically clear". As an RPG gamer...and someone who has spent most of his life viewing things in "cinematic" framerates of around 25-30fps.....games in 30fps are not a problem for me. And I'm not willing to give up the other aspects of game design and quality of game experience just to get that high frame rate.

Because it makes no difference

It‘s a technical thing most people don‘t understand anyway. I guess the engine simply is too old to support HDR/4K (and god knows what) on consoles which will always be mid-range PCs, mo matter how powerful an Xbox One X or PS4 Pro are. Not to mention the actual graphics engine and/or networking stuff (which does require a high CPU load) going on in the background (synchronizing A.I. combatants for example). Battlefield for example, while beautiful and able to support many players, was always a multiplayer game and DICE even developed a brand new engine later, just for this game. That never happened to Destiny. What Bungie did was upgrading the engine to enable some nice new fancy stuff and it seems like they used Reachs engine and upgraded it. Could be wrong here though. So, simple answer: the engine is aged. But heh, I don‘t mind. The game looks beautiful, runs smooth and plays great. There is an 60fps option and it is called PC. Also it makes no difference besides everything running faster or a more precise netcode (tick rate) which could come in handy for PvP. With no dedicated servers though it would be pointless.

I always liked the charm of non 60fps games. I didnt play Halo MC collection much because I missed how the older versions used to run. Though I could do without the lag spikes.

Time to get off your high horse sir

Why is the most beautiful game ever on PS4 and not on PC?

lol where did you get the idea we were ok with 30fps? people have been bitching about this since pre release when we found out it was going to be 30fps.
