Guild Wars 2

When I first played gw2 in all 3 beta weekends and a few of the stress test I always had sore eyes and headaches. The camera and the turning just felt wrong. Well when the game came out I played it so much I did get used to it and thought that was the end of it, however It seems that I have this problem again after taking a small 2 week break to beat a single player game. No game no matter how good it is, and GW2 is great, is worth my eyes hurting just to readjust to its funky field of view / accelerating camera turning. So unfortunately I will not be able to continue playing GW2 untill a field of view adjustment option is added. In addition an option to allow the zoom to go farther out would be a big improvement and allow for a more comfortable amount of in game peripheral vision. This may be the easier of the 2 solutions to this problem, hard to tell since I have no means to try each option and see if it works for me.

This is not a problem I have had in any other games, and i practically live at my computer (playing games) when not at work. Its also such a shame that I cant enjoy an amazing game that I literally looked into daily for more than 3 years of development over a simple little camera adjustment option that should exist but doesn’t.

Thank you

my eyes hurt from gw2 as well until i went into Options and the Graphic Options and turned off “Depth Blur”, once i turned that off it stopped whatever was hurting my eyes.

might not work for you though, but thought i’d offer a suggestion.

more drawn back camera is needed. We play with a blind spot incase you havent noticed.
I dont understand why during some dungeons and events does the camera pan out but we can’t manually set it that far back?!

the camera distance i have right now actually is the shortest among all the mmorpg i have played, even though i have it panned out to the farest. makes me feel that my screen is too small and very uncomfortable to play. i love the distance when fighting the two elemental hands from the centaur boss in herachi hinterland. i dont understand why cant adjust normal view angle to that distance.
