I don't actually hate motion blur, I really like the cinematic feel of in-engine graphics.

I went through a phase where I wanted things sharper and sharper to showcase technical ability (mostly in consumer grade video and photography), but then once THAT was ubiquitous I found myself focusing on deteriorating the quality for its uniqueness and allure. Forcing the viewer to find focal points themselves and increasing interest.

I feel like gamers don't really have an opinion one way or the other, but have been told not to like blur? I'm not really sure I just haven't seen the arguments and have gone full circle on the meme myself. At the end of the day I enjoy it.
