Top and Bottom of Screen Blurred in Game

[Junz95]

Did anyone experience this issue before, where the top and bottom part of the in-game screen blurred on main menu and cutscene in Fullscreen, borderless and Windowed view? How do you guys resolve this?

The game's UI is optimized for 16x9 resolutions. You however have a 16x10 resolution which is bigger than the 16x9 aspect ratio.

Long time ago then yes, but remember what cause it i do not, from bigger resolution then screen size is to Driver issue ( native screen and monitor reset even ) its maybe 10+yeras ago sense i last seen this atleast.

So monitor reset to default and fresh GPU driver install is the key.

do check Moniytors brand page if they made a .ini or sofware, or just use windows default.

as i said it was along time ago, lets see if other steam user has seen newer issue.

added edit
Good Ettanin also have seen this before.

So, does it mean I need to adjust my Windows Display resolution?

I am using laptop btw, so not sure if there is any difference with desktop users~

You don't need to change anything. It's how it's meant to work. Stay on your native resolution.

Some game has own in-game resolution other use windows settings.

ps.
No thats not what we ment , we have seen ppl change native to something else, i have also seen Some Monitor can go past Native Resolution, but most gamer stay with Native Resolution as it was build for as default.

Check that game dont have own configlauncher.exe ( bethesda is one of them )

I dont know horizon zero dawn what that game can do. or can be set to in own ingame settings.

Imagine it as a form of "letterboxing", like you (and I) got with videos too, just a little more fancy. They could as well have slapped black bars on top and bottom.
Some games only support one aspect ratio; most often 4:3 for older titles and 16:9 for newer ones (edit: and then there are vertical resolutions for cheap mobile ports of course). If this is the case, try not to mess with it. At "best" you end up with stretched images, at worst you cut off a part of the side borders.

I've seen this style most commonly on TV news shows
