So can we talk about the screen issue here?

It's been a known annoyance since Leviathan Extreme and it's never been officially acknowledged. Don't hold your breath.

You can also put your monitors up in sourround... so you get like with a 2560x1440 if you have 3 and bind them together to get 7680x1440

pls use first party, SE-made 480p monitor, pls and ty

Yoshi-P please add PSVR2 support

I mean how much farther do we need to stretch with the games intended difficulty?

Ah, yes, the challenge of accumulating enough disposable income to buy an ultrawide or triple-monitor setup and the hardware to drive it.

Really cool that Mr. Yoshida and crew are creating this exciting crossover event with Real Life.

Honestly the FoV for FFXIV is sometimes problematic for me because some bosses mechanics I've found I've actually misses since I can't actually scale out far enough to see the entire thing. I play on an Ultrawide too and usually the problem for me is the Vertical View is very restrictive to the point I cannot see some boss mechanics as they're out of my FoV. Gotten hit myself by avoidable mechanics as I just don't see them at all over this. Despite the whole drama over the Zoomer's it does point out a problem I've noticed for a while, the other that has been pointed out in this whole raid drama is the fact Omega actually deploys enough debuffs to trigger the 30 buff limit currently on the game, an issue that has been highlighted by those doing Delirium and even Eureka. If Yoshi want's to prevent a repeat it probably would be a good idea to maybe either add an option to raise the Vertical Positioning of the PC to be either higher or allow a larger FoV in the game to give better views expecially since some bosses are quite large.

Say it louder for people in the back. Not enough flak is given for how large boss and boss hitboxes have gotten.

"nuhnuhnuh but skill issue tho"
Humanity has been creating tools and strategies to supplement skill since we fucking found out fire existed.

so the 2 in the middle are typically what players on console and probably a majority of PC players see depending on the specific model of monitor or TV. That top one reminds me of old oversided tubed monitors and TV's from before HD came around... I'd think no one would still be using those for anything other than retro gaming lol.

Yeah, a challenge that only a few people need to overcome assuming they don't have a bigger screen. Right, right.

Do you do anything besides troll these forums?

They won't care, especially here.
