Whenever i move the framerate becomes very choppy. It feels like the game runs in slow motion. Some frames appear normally but other frames seem to appear for a longer duration than others. This causes a very jittery experience.
To reproduce, make a platform of width 100-150 blocks. Then move from one end to another. The faster you move, the more noticeable the choppiness is. Repeat this exercise on the PC or Mobile version and you will instantly feel how smooth they are.
Please note that the framerate does not feel choppy ALL the time. Sometimes it runs normally but then the choppy frames kick in. They seem to be more frequent when i am moving to new areas, that is, i am not just walking back and forth but moving in a certain direction.
You can easily see the choppiness if you focus on the trees in the background when moving. If the frames are appearing normally, the trees will appear to move smoothly. But when the choppiness kicks in, the trees do not move in a fluid motion. It feels like they move, then stop, then move again but very quickly.
It is also worth mentioning that this choppy framerate is not something new introduced in a later update. It has been like this since the very beginning of Ps4 and Xbox One versions. I own Terraria Ps4 version on the latest patch that is the PC equivalent of 1.3.5.
