  How else am I supposed to see the green shells behind me?

    360° monitor setup including rear view mirrors.

      I love the idea of having a 360° monitor and rear view mirrors instead of just smaller rear view screens, or even digital on-screen rear view mirrors. 😄

        New proposal:
        360°C monitor setup
        3 small (something like 10") monitors as side/rearview mirrors
        actual side-/rearview mirrors

  As someone who uses a 65" LG OLED as my primary monitor and sits 5ft away, the FoV can never be high enough in nearly every game.

    You’d think it would be the opposite? High FOV when you are far away doesn’t match the expected projection of the things you see on screen. 5 ft is pretty normal I would say, I sit that far from my LG 65" OLED, too. I turn down my FOV in Rocket League so it doesn’t mess with my perception, even though you’d think a high FOV in that game would benefit you as you can avoid demolitions easier. (I do keep the FOV at max in Rocket League when in front of my PC though, because I’m so close to my monitor, probably 2 ft or so.)

      5ft is close for a 65" screen. Most people sit about 8-10ft away from a screen that size. And to be clear, I’m referring to distance from my eyeballs. The foot of the recliner is about 2ft away.
