I don't think I've ever known the fps of any of the games I've played.
I do remember having to zoom in on Doom II on some levels because my computer was very slow for that game, yet I still loved the game (of course, I did enjoy it better when I played at a friend's that had a better computer and a sound card, but that's another story).
I only care about the playing part of playing games. Like, when I played marbles (yeah, I've been around ...), while I did have a favorite marble or two, I only cared about playing.
I don't say this to discredit you, of course, just that I think by the time a game makes it so big as this one, it's because it's reaching ordinary people like me who couldn't care less about fps and just like the game if playing it lets them have a great time, so if there is any mass psychology involved, I suppose it's the mass psychology of coming up with a compelling game that people enjoy playing. Anyone who has that doesn't need to fool people into not noticing how low their fps rate is.
