widescreen resolution removed from the game.

I am in the same situation. Stuck with 32:9 only monitor that I paid with my work's sweat, initialy very excited that I could play the game in a more immersive way, to now have to force the game in a tiny window in the center of my screen, and then GGG does that to us. Regardless there being the majority of players still on 16:9 aspect ratio screens, cmon, its 2022, they should make it compatible and available for all the community. Some of us spend thousands of dollars in their game for the love of the support, and thats the disappointment we get back.
This isnt even a competitive game to say that its unfair for other player who wont have the same. I see this as just a QOL.
Even competitive games like Modern Warfare II, New World supports 32:9 aspect ratio, and Poe as a coop game wont allow it. Whats the advantage of having more FOV in game that we kill mobs and collect loot? I mean seriously.
GGG should honestly think it over and make it fair for lots of us who really show love for their game instead of treating us this way.

Able to target mobs that are off screen for other players seems like a clear advantage to me. However, increasing FOV slightly would help everyone.

Correct, FOV Increase would satisfy both, wide screen and ultrawide screen owners. But they dont really think about it, do they?

This has all been answered in this thread before...

This is not a competitive game.

Fast pc hardware combined with high refresh displays offers more gameplay advantages than an ultrawide screen, as does use of 3rd party tools. If the objective of this change is to put everyone on a level playing field for some kind of PVE competitive integrity, GGG is straining out a gnat but swallowing a camel.

If PVP is the problem, just change it for PVP.

This change is not defensible. It's irrational to the highest degree and represents very poor game development.

Day 176. Fix it. No excuse.

Yep. Agreed. Plus eventually more and more players will end up changing to ultrawide and then I want to see GGG's excuse. That day will come, sooner or later.

-Still no fix for black bars on modern super ultra wide monitors?

----> unistalled this old game for ever, moved forward new games.

in a league where you need to evade attacks, it is the worst timing to implement that. There's so many attacks that are coming out of my screen, i have been holding to the original sin scroll since week 1 and i dont plan on using it. It's just impossible right now and there's no way i will make a dumb totem build just for that mechanic. That change restricts the gameplay in more than one way and punishes only the people that were actually using it.

Fix it.

Day 177.

Fix it.

Day 178.

Fix it.

Still no news, very sad :(
