That's the crazy thing to me. It pretty much ONLY affects people with too much money to spend anyway. Look at the supporter titles, hell look at mine. Why else do you have 1k+ €/$ monitors. To piss off the ones with the money has got to be the most bush league maneuver in the history of this company.

It's really brilliant big brain stuff from GGG

1) Make F2P game and rely on your players' generosity for support
2) Make options for your wealthier players to support in large amounts
3) Stealth kick your wealthy players in the nuts for no reason
4) Profit!!!

The biggest kick in the balls is the centered UI, I was pretty pumped for that. I figured they were listening and making changes for UW users...guess not. At the current static resolution who even cares if the UI is centered, its not wide enough to even matter lol.

They say 21:9 is the widest supported resolution but even that doesn’t work. I have a 3440x1440 21:9 and still have black bars on the side. Really disappointing.

NGL the centered UI announcement feels like a pretty scummy bamboozle. They implied they'd be INCREASING their support for ultrawide users, then nuked it without saying a thing. Some unfortunate PoE gamer probably went out and purchased a 32:9 monitor after seeing the centered UI change.

guys check out

[Removed by Support]

Please revert the ultrawide changes.

I was playing the game at 5120x1440 with absolutely ZERO issues in 3.18

Removing 32:9 Support is lame. You took away some fun I had with the game. Now it constantly reminds me that the game limits me and ignores my wish to play. No player agency here. Bad design.

I really hope GGG reconsider and deiced to revert to how it was in previous patch for ultrawide. Playing poe last patch with 32:9 was very immersive, and i'm really surprised they would remove it.
I'm happy i waited with buying a support pack this league.

I had not expect anything from you and still you'd managed to disappointed me GGG. I will not play till this is reverted.

Before buying my 5120x1440 monitor, I made sure that poe would run well on it, and it did for about 2 years.
Now there's shitty blackbars on each side...

I really don't understand why you make the choice to drop ultra wide support like that without telling us in advance. A technical limitation that was working just fine for multiple years, I don't recall it being adressed as an issue on any podcast/reddit post :(.

It's 2022 btw guys.
