21:9 for dlc?
Anyone know they finally will implement 21:9 for better immersion with the game? or from software is still in age of rock?

It's completely uncertain if your desired aspect ratio will be implemented when the dlc releases.
Check back at the 20th.

I've seen the reasoning for not having ultrawide support is that of a competitive advantage or whatever. So I doubt it.

iirc the game actually does render in ultrawide, but they place black bars overlayed so it narrows your view.

As FromSoft has yet to make an official statement about it, the reasoning behind the lack UW implementation is all speculation. It might be to prevent some having a hardware related advantage in pvp, it might also be because some kind of artistic vision the devs are trying to enforce.

It could also be that having ultrawide for games isnt actually important so they dont bother waste their time on it.

This will never happen until Sony supports it on console. FromSoft isn't going to let PC have something console doesn't get, as it would make consoles look bad and Sony would get angry.

all other sony games have 21:9 like god of war and other ones. FromSoftware games are only games that doesn't support 21:9.

CS, Lol, Dota, cod. All of the competive games have UW. Elden Ring is RPG game with a good story created by famous author of game of trones. They talked a lot about immersion. Your agument is invalid compared to other games and type of game. More adventages you have by having more FPS, good mouse so you will call it P2W? and blame people for having better mouse? maybe we should ban better mouses and low altency keyboards? Stop with this low iq ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. It's not realistic and it's creating it's own morality - lecturing us 21:9 is worse than mouse or better fps which is jsut about opinion. It's more like woke culture shhh of baby inc in world of yours we will be limited and locked on 30fps, with minimum graphic, without any options, and on the same cpu/gpu, delays and other. Imagine forcing FPS on players. Which actually exist in competive mortal kombat games - which are competive in real.

shaming 21:9 for adventages is just woke culture by creating your own morality based only on your opinion about what is good and what not.

go on lock your fps on 30, trash your monitor with higher fps, put down your mouse you bought and low latency keyboard.

I doubt players with UW monitors get immersed with two black bars on each side of their screen...

The fact it took another developer to add Ultrawide when porting Dark Souls Remastered to PC shows you how bad From Software are on the PC.

I love the Souls series, but with all the money this studio are making it's absolutely unacceptable the state of PC ports from framerate to basic resolution support.

And before anyone says there are issues with UW and things like the enemy FOV when in the black bar area, modders fixed everything, the FlawlessWidescreen plugin is perfect. It even allows Chromatic Abombination (Aberration) to be turned off.

But no online play destroys a big part of the souls series.

Those reviewing From Software PC ports really need to start docking the company points until they start taking PC ports more seriously. Armored Core seems to be a step in the right direction, so there is no excuse for the framerate cap not to be lifted and UW not to be added with the DLC launch patch.

That is true, there might be no excuses. But as said earlier, there might be reasons as to why all of that hasn't been added yet. It's not necessarily malice or ignorance that's driving the support of certain features, or in this case, rather the lack thereof.

If you want a definitve answer about it, your best bet is opening a ticket with Bandai Namco support.

Only people who don't know ultrawide write something like that.

Buy an ultrawide and then realize how shoddy the 16:9 format is.

I play games for gameplay.you should try that.
You kids these days care too much about looks and not gameplay.
The visuals are fine.you don't need UW to enjoy the game.
You are just crying for the sake of crying.

Kindly explain to me: exactly what kind of response do you expect to receive from anyone when you talk down to them, take what they posted personally, and start insulting them?

What is going on behind the eyeballs of an UW user like you, I wonder. What drives you to throw a tantrum as soon as people dare disagree with you? And why is every single thread you guys create doomed to go down the same road? Are you like this in real life as well when talking to another human being, or is this just the symptom of sitting behind a humongous screen that triggers as soon as a game doesn't display properly?

Amazing, really.

Ultrawide is like HDR, good on paper but for unpractical for everyday use.
I see something different. HDR can be great if it's well incorporated into the game. The same goes for ultrawide. Yes, you can argue about which is better. Ultrawide also has its disadvantages, but for me there is hardly anything better for working and playing games.

And it's just a shame that Elden Ring prevents you from doing that. I find playing with fat edges all the time rather uncool.

Someone who clearly doesn't own an ultrawide monitor giving their opinion about the importance of ultrawide support on an ultrawide topic makes me wonder how much your life must suck. You must really be enjoying your gameplay if you spend your time that way.
