No, it has way more options and scaling types thatn gamescope. Also it can do pretty good framegen. I use it all the time.

Not a fan of framegen personally. I've been fine with just gamescope since they added the pixel art scaling. I haven't really had a need for any other type of scaling filter in my experience.

Framegen has to be used on a game where I have 30-40fps.

If I have 29fps, my character lags like they're drunk.

If I have 50+fps, I don't need framegen.

Cyberpunk 2077 is the only game I use it on.

That's fair. I mostly use framegen to get from 40-60 fps in games. You stop seeing the artifacts pretty quickly, even with something like Losseless Scaling, which doesn't have access to internal game data like a native implementation would.
