  • I’m just saying in certain games setting your custom resolution could be considered cheating.

    For example in competitive first person shooters, if you play on a 16:9 monitor, and you set the resolution to be a ratio much, much wider than your monitor, you will see all the way around the player in 360°. This is how graphics projection math works. Or it did when I last dabbled in writing a graphics engine.

    So I can understand some games not allowing certain odd ratios and FOVs in combination.

    Otherwise I agree, of course we should be able to set a resolution that matches our monitors that we have. 😊👍










  • When I say kid’s shows, I’m not really talking about The Bad Batch. That show cut deep into me as an adult with my own children. That show is not for kids.

    No, I mean more stuff like these template cookie cutter Disney shows, like Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures. Those are utterly not interesting at all, and I don’t consider them canon for my own sanity of not feeling like I need to watch them. 😄

    My kids watched some episodes of that show while I was listening in from the side, and it could’ve just as easily been an episode of literally any other kid’s show, like Paw Patrol or something, but with a Star Wars theme to it. Same basic messages as any American kid’s show. And a bit overly tailored towards an American audience as well, specifically. Not really looking to subject my children to that. 🙅‍♂️
