Wouldnt this be the reverse, with the prey animal only being able to see a 4:3 with both eyes?
No, they see more of the sides to detect predators. Predators eyes are forward, narrow cone of vision
I wouldn’t call it narrow. It’s almost 180 degrees. More than enough for a 16x9 monitor
The point is how much you can see without moving your eyes.
Yeah we can technically see a pretty wide range but that’s mainly peripheral. You can’t really make out details unless you move your eyes to look directly at something.
Whereas prey animal eyes aren’t supposed to be super detail oriented in the first place. So they can see more without moving their eyes to look directly at something because details aren’t important.
I mean, it’s not, but do you King.
If the screen is inside your field of view, youre not losing detail using a 16:9 monitor.
If you’re not gaming on 9:16 you’re not a true gamer
I game on 9:21. I’m seeing every damn cloud in the sky and every blade of grass down to my feet.
Maybe just try switching to a 4:3 resolution before investing in an entire monitor.
Where in the fresh hell does one even get a 4:3 screen these days?
I just took a 16x9 and hacked the sides off with a sawsall. It doesn’t work now, but I still feel superior.
The second hand market. I don’t think many of them will even be 1080p or 60Hz, and i’m pretty sure you can forget about 4k
I have one listed on craigslist right now, for free because it’s broken. No takers.
I used to have a CRT screen that was 1600x1200 @60hz, so high resolution ones do exist.
Hell yeah man, 4:3 CRT monitors are superior in almost every way. I have a monitor that does up to 1920x1440p@75hz, but the best ones do up to 2048x1536@80hz. Crazy.
