Thoughts on Dynamic Foveated Rendering in the Pimax CRYSTAL...

After experimenting with dynamic foveated rendering in various titles on the Pimax Crystal for a few days, I decided to give a few quick thoughts on my experience with this feature so far. This feature is currently in beta, and not yet available to all Crystal users, but hopefully it will have a general release soon.
