Vertical and horizontal letterboxing - Blurry, downscaled visuals
I launch the game in 1920x1080p on my main monitor and the in-game options confirm this but like the title says it gets letterboxed from all directions and the screenshot I took doesn't capture those, instead making it 1768x992 in size.

The game looks fine when launched on my second monitor which is 1920x1200 and set accordingly in the settings. I'm guessing this might be some conflict with my dual monitor set-up but it's practically unplayable like this.
Borderless works fine but then I'd have to deal with the reduced performance it would bring.

from what i know of kenshi borderless is actually slightly faster than fullscreen and has less issues..

Thanks for letting me know (if that's the case), I just assumed it'd run worse like the majority of games.

I'll give it a try and see how it runs. Still wouldn't mind a solution to the issue I'm having, if there is one.
Fullscreen has issues, and unsure when they will get fixed, but the issues are known.

I never noticed a performance different in 95% of game between fullscreen and borderless, but I have noticed many games to be glitchy on full screen but not borderless.

So out of habit I run every game borderless unless they obvious issues.

Plus borderless is so much better for alt tabbing.

For me the game runs better in true fullscreen. It's like that for most games in my experience. Alt+tabbing of course can be an issue but I just use the steam overlay to browse or check other websites.

I have the same issue.
Multiple monitors cause it, I think.
Pressing Alt + Enter to force fullscreen fixes this for me.

I had the exact issue, alt tabing back into the game fixed it for me but I just run borderless fullscreen now and I don't have that issue anymore. I also get about 10 fps more.
