Well ... we always pay for stupids. Kids that exploited something that made the game fun got it removed. Grats to you exploiters, you pulled all of us downward to your level.

It feel quite a lot like what CCP did years and years ago in EVE. I was a carebear, high sec miner and industrialist, even with my own payers owned star base to manufacture and research. I had quite a lot of fun doing it. Having 2 account and casually mining with my Hulk and Orca while studying in Uni. But Mining and industrialist got so ... much ... exploited by bots and real money traders that CCP nerfed and nerfed and nerfed and nerfed again the industrialist career increasing the pew pew pew carrer of gate campers and war mongering players to a point of not really rulling out suicide bombing miners for fun even if by suicide bombing they lost 1M and you lost 1B by being killed.

I uninstalled POE months ago because of this move. There is no what I'll play with 2 massive black bar on a 1400$ screen. I came to see if they tracked back on it just to see this thing is still there. After seeing how cheating in Tarkov was so much wide spread, the absolute disaster of BF2042, the emptyness of MP in NFS Heat, the horror that fortnight or apex or the other one are, multiplayers gaming seems more and more dead. Might just stay American Truck Simulator on MP that is polite and fun to play where you can meet nice people and drive with them online.

I think I'd rather buy POE as a standalone offline game even if it means no market for gears ( with a more balanced drops of gears of course in that way ) than continue to want "online" gaming that add nothing and only remove fun to the game. But the gaming industry lately try to shove down our throat the fun of online gaming.

Anyway ... rant ending here.

I'll check back in 3-5 months. I'll go play Oxygen not Included or ATS or maybe a bit of free destiny 2 ( no way in hell I'm paying ever again for another online game with 3-4 months update cycle )
Nothing broken here. Aspect Ratios higher than 16:9 will be phased out within the next few years.

Yea it is sad, I mean if there was more feedback or communication it would certainly help. "it is what it is" is what I remember from the original post.

I mean I am still happy to play the game as it is, but it is very annoying and in games like Elden Ring, most require a simple fix to get them working.

I can understand it gives a competitive advantage in PVP but why not give the option in PVE only to have it full screen? idk....

It's almost like this is a normal, expected PC gaming feature in 2023 and it would be really strange for a PC developer to not include it.

Imagine if there were some developer out there that thought removing the feature were an acceptable design choice. Crazy.
