    With respect, I'm not sure what you were doing to make two monitors work, but in general, asking a game to increase resolution across two monitors just gives you a beautiful view to your left and right, and a nice bevel down the center of your character. Now, in the interest of full disclosure, I have not spent much time fiddling with these settings, since I prefer to leave my right monitor for things like Internet browsing and Skype anyway.

    Windowed mode, off center, non-native resolution. I played around with settings until I had enough room for my chat windows in one screen and enough space left over for a browser or whatever while my main screen had my character and all the action. It took plenty of fiddling around to get things right, but worked great.

    Curved monitors or edgeless monitors are the solution! Go buy one! lol

    I'd love to upgrade my monitor, I'm still sporting a old 19" 4:3 monitor and a CRT 4:3. *sigh* lol

    While a nice idea, I think most would use the other screen for their web guides/ chat programs/ music/ movies while crafting and so forth.

    Also I much prefer to not have a map all the time because it encourages me as a player to look at my surroundings and learn little landmarks so that I can travel without a map all the time.

    I would like to see a little bit of what Wolfie was saying.

    I want to see irregular desktop sizes and a choice to extend the view or just extend the window more.

    If you just extended the window you can have a space to place maps and chat. And still have a little room for a browser at the same time.
