Dear Stormgate Developer Team,

I am planning to buy a new monitor to play Stormgate.

I would like to ask what size monitor you would recommend to have the best experience playing Stormgate! There is a lot of discussion about 24, 27, and 32 inch screen sizes from players, but I would be interested to know from the developers what you guys think is the optimal screen size for the game from a competitive aspect!

Thanks so much

woo! excited to hear what they say :D

What I'm hearing back is that it's a complicated answer as players have personal preferences when it comes to resolution and screen size related to their comfort or what they feel is "optimal."

Your question reminded me of how Quake players used to play at 640x480 because it was best for high frame rates. (Personally, I play the Stormgate pre-alpha at 4K on a 27" monitor.)

I'd say hold off and wait for a good deal this coming Black Friday/Cyber Monday?

I think devs only hang out in discord.

I know for a fact that many of our devs are daily visitors to this subreddit. :)
