Shouldn't these screens be swapped? The 4:3 matches the "seen by both eyes" of prey better, and the predator should be able to fit the widescreen in its "seen by both eyes" vision better.
Nah, because 9:21 or whatever stupid resolution phones use now is basically even wider than 16:9, they just flip it on its side. 1:1 is the greatest resolution for gaming
It gets memed because some people say "It's better I swear!" Then die because an enemy was in a corner they didn't check fully because they can't see as much. It's caused pros to actually lose games in CS:GO.

Anon discovers FOV and probably higher framerates.

The player is the predator/prey. A wide screen helps you see threats, a narrow screen helps you focus on targets.

You couldn't have just... Sat back a bit further from the screen?

You could just change your resolution...
Or even just paste on strips of paper to get the same effect.
If their logic rang true then gaming on a phone would be the ultimate immersion.

I think you mean 1:1 ratio. 1 pixel by 1 pixel would be ultra no res 🤣

Meanwhile I finally got a 21:9 and I'm so not going back! 120 FOV might finally feel normal at this ratio.

One day you will all awaken to the 1:1 master race and will see the world through new, perfectly square, eyes.

I will defend anon on the basis that having your HUD stretch from sea to shining sea assumes I have goat eyes.
