Zoom x3
No idea if there is an option to set zoom to higher level, I'm on x2 zoom but all things are still quite small and hard to see, I need more zoom.
1366x768 resolution (max)

I have other game with zoom feature and it let me use it on every resolution.
Even on 800x600 I can set the zoom to the max level, so I don't understand that lock on zoom option in this game.
Resolution option seems to be locked to, I can't change it.

Is this gmae some kind of conspiracy to make people blind or something?

How does seeing more correlate to making you blind? xD

Also, it's probably best for you to see more in the long run, honestly. It helps a ton to see things farther away, and x1 zoom's a bit ridiculous, nonetheless.

Not everyone has good sight, you know?
The character is just to small for me on x2 zoom, and I lose track of it quite often, and that leads to a quick game over.
Does any one know how to activate x3 or high scaling for 800x600 , i love the game but i am barely able to see whats going on , i rather focus on zooming in on the char than the whole map

I literally laughed out loud the first time I fired up this game. Honestly, I thought I had bought a Flea Circus. :-)

Have you tried setting the scale=x line in the prefs file?

Why would you only want to see a few feet infront of you? Could understand wanting a 3x or 4x zoom if you had a 4k monitor or something.

It's already been said, but I'll put it another way so that maybe you understand: Because some of us are half blind. :-)

So much this.

I hate to be blunt but at x3 zoom with 1366x768 max resolution your likly to be sniped by half the enemies in this game, your better off investing in a laptop/monitor with a larger resolution (more importantly larger physical screen size) if you have trouble with your eyes (Im severly short sighted myself).

Have you tried setting scale to 3 in the perfs file in "\Steam\SteamApps\common\Risk of Rain"?
Nevermind, just tested if you can in windowed, didn't work

I've always played with 3x zoom, I prefer it, lets me appreciate the art better.

Bumping thread from 2014 to say that I just played Risk of Rain for the first time tonight, and when it first started (in 2x zoom), I assumed there was something wrong with the resolution (mine is set to 1920x1080). I can't believe how small everything is in this game. I was able to switch to 3x, but good gravy how could anyone play any smaller?
