Fix for Fullscreen?
I know we are all very busy discussing the use of pronouns in-game... but I wanted to interject for just a moment to ask if there is any fix for the lack of a fullscreen option in the game?

there is no fullscreen, youve got borderless window and windowed mode, assuming youre on windows 10 or 11 its literally not a problem to play borderless window anymore, it hasnt affected performance in any meaningful way for years now.

It is also gone from DX12 if I'm not mistaken, so don't expect to see it often.

It may not impact performance but Exclusive Fullscreen is required for Auto HDR.

the only problem is that you can't play with a lower resolution directly, like you can do with Cyberpunk. Since the borderless window defaults at the desktop resolution. Which is quite problematic since my screen is huge and go with 4K as recommended resolution, but want to play this game in 2K for performance reasons.

i literally tested it just now, youre either a huge troll or just blind.

Doesn't it seem like there's some stuff missing? Fullscreen... HDR, HDR ajustment, FOV, Brightness... this is just at a glance. I'm comparing the graphics options to other AAA games I have played lately and it seems like there is some generally common stuff missing.

thats fair, i dont know why youd want to do that though, the game would look horrible, blurry and washed out. assuming it is performance you want then starfield does support AMD FSR upscaling and there is a mod for NVIDIA DLSS.

if you need fullscreen, your PC isnt strong enough to play this game at even the lowest settings, yeah it kinda sucks that theres no proper HDR support. there is built in SDR to HDR conversion in windows 11 though and it works okay. also there are mods for HDR support now. FOV is in the game, all you have to do is spend 1min editing an .ini file. brightness? im actually not sure xd i belive you might be correct.

I mean, whether or not some Joe can run it at whatever settings doesn't really seem like an excuse to not have exclusive fullscreen in a game. I'm not trying to argue... I just think that is something people are going to expect.

as far as im aware, DX12 doesnt support exclusive fullscreen anymore. microsoft didnt deem it to be necessary. take that up with them, not bethesda game studios.

Isn't Cyberpunk a DX12 game? I just played that not too long ago and it had exclusive fullscreen.

There is a way to use a lower scaling, like scaling it to 75%, but it looks like ♥♥♥♥. So I have to change my desktop resolution to 2K everytime I play the game. And it looks better and is running more efficient. So pretty much tired of having to switch back and forth with changing my desktop screen resolution. There is (or was?) the same issue with Hogwarts Legacy too not allowing to change the resolution, only scale it (and also look like ♥♥♥♥). Cyberpunk allows changing the resolution while in windowed fullscreen, which makes the game look great in 2K.

so basically since its forcing the game to run in 4k im ♥♥♥♥♥♥ cause theres no way for me to fix it outside of playing windowed? another epic win on bethesda who cannot comprehend that their community may not want to run the game at low settings on 4k just to get the game to semi function and not lag
