So I dusted off my copy of GW2 and was reminded of this little quirk this game has with cinematic aspect ratios (3440×1440).

I’m actually quite surprised this still hasn’t been fixed, it’s the only game I’ve had an issue with in this aspect ratio. I’ve tried searching the forums but I’m evidently quite bad at it. Is there a solution out there that I may have missed?

I am not really seeing an issue with that screenshot, but this game has horrible resolutions support beyond 1080p. I suggest setting your NVIDIA to not scale and maintain aspect ratio so it letterboxes the sides and makes it a normal 16:9 monitor.

That’s the character select screen, it’s cropping my character and there’s no way to zoom out of that. I suppose it might be l little confusing because I let the UI elements fade out before I took the screenshot.

Here’s another shot, this time of Character Creation: http://i.imgur.com/Jm2dO4J.jpg

The “Select Race” title sits level to the Norn’s shoulder. Once I’m actually in game, it’s actually not so terrible, so I’d hate to have to crop my field of view just because of a couple of inflexible screens…
