widescreen resolution removed from the game.

I think it's all clear, especially with the Archnemesis shit, theses cheaters were able to aim with a ranger from the cornerscreen.

At least this was fixed. Community has other priorities.

It's really amusing to watch the white knights try and spin it this way, because I've never seen a SINGLE complaint on reddit or on this forum about how unfair it is that POE works on ultrawide displays until this patch.

Support for all resolutions/aspect ratios has been in the game for TEN YEARS and NOBODY was complaining about it.

It's one of the most pure forms of white knighting I've ever seen, because there is no real argument to be made here. There's just a nonsense excuse from GGG for why they removed a feature from their game, and now that excuse is getting parroted around by NPCs (who probably have never even been in the same room as an ultrawide display) as if it has even a shred of validity.

look, i've been on the other end of the line for 10 years of poe because i always played on a office monitor with 16:10 resolution in fullscreen.

i just didn't know that this resolution cuts off content left and right which actually is in the regular activation radius cause the displayed content in the height in the game is fixed.

i got oneshot from left and right and nobody told me to set the resolution so it adds bars to the top/bottom.
i thought in 16:10 i see more vertical content than with 16:9 which would have been a advantage cause most attacks come from top/down.

it's not whiteknighting, i'm pissed others were more clever than me and always got the advantage of seeing more content :)

it never worked with other resolution ratios, the game is designed for 16:9 only.

The community needs to get its head straight then. Black borders are killing the expirience and are not explainable to people just starting with POE.

I am 100% with you, if you say that there had to be a change, but the way they did it is visually inacceptable and unfair. (The huge black borders are passable for your cursor, which is not even fixed by "Confine Cursor to Window"-option. So in fact if you are using a screen with a large aspect ratio atm, you are punished for it by beeing able to loose track of your cursor.)

So please pretty please, if you have never tried playing POE on a ultrawide screen setup, just keep out of the conversation. This is NOT a "We want our unfair advantage back!"-thread!
