Uploaded two shots below:
1st Comparison is just the starting position, you can see with the 21:9 you can clearly see the waypoint in town.
2nd Comparson shows and example of the advantage it provides. In this situation, walking through the sewers, the 21:9 ratio can see the chest & grates marking the end of the path, thus you don't need to stick your head in. The 16:9 has nothing of that on screen. On occasion you can see shrines before they appear on the minimap as well.
Hey all,
I’d like to propose a new rule applicable to every category, but particularly NG runs. To prohibit the use of ultrawide monitors.
I’ve been running this for a while and it’s clear my 21:9 screen is a distinct advantage over the a standard 16:9 aspect ratio screen. I know it’s probably a very small pool this will impact, but the additional vision the wider screen provides is unfair to have locked behind owning a particular monitor or setup.
Appreciate I am probably making things harder for myself as I’m now used to 21:9 but it’s a clear advantage that should be ruled out for submitted runs.
Happy to show comparisons if needed.
