    Default The resolution for DFO 100% kills the game for me.

    This really sucks. The game has one resolution and its like 640 x 480 or something. WTF this is 2009, nobody has that size monitor anymore. If I run it full screen it looks like complete poo, and in windowed mode its like a spec on my desktop. That completely ruins the game for me, and I have been looking forward to this game for a long time. Why would the company release the game with ONLY a resolution from like the 1700s. Really annoys me =(

    Also it's meant to look like a snes game, not blazblue or whatever.

    I think it looks perfectly fine in full-screen, or windowed.

    It's a great game, I wouldn't let the resolution choice (or lack of) decide whether or not to play it.

    It may be 2009 but the game was released in 2005 and probably developed 1 or 2 years before that.

    I hear this crap all the time when people try games like D2 for the first time in the past couple years they are expecting some super high end graphics or something and fail to realize how old the game is and that it's the gameplay and free online play that made the game so great for it's time.

    Cool story, bro.

    Now, my input:

    It's pixels, what do you want? I'm pretty sure you couldn't play Super Mario Brothers with on a 1280x1024 resolution.

    Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

    On my scale for judging a game Art and Style are above Graphics and Dungeon Fighter is dripping with both.

    Newsflash, the game's 3 years old man. And not playing a game because of the resolution is stupid.

    Also obligatory "Cool story, bro"

    Forcing 4:3 resolutions on 16:9 monitors is an eyesore indeed.

    just you m8...learn to cope with it or just quit~ don't need people complaining about a feature of one of the most popular games in Asia.
    ;/ Soulja Boy is super popular, does that mean you like him too?

    I didnt say anything about the graphics style.... it looks cool.

    The problem is the resolution. In windowed mode because of the terrible resolution its very small on my monitor. Diablo 2 had more resolution options and that game is older than this.

    That is a very very small resolution, and for us gamers with widescreen monitors it is, as Cingal said, a complete eyesore.

    So spare me the "omg it looks like old stuff" garbage, I used to play those games too. Remember how they used to fit to your TV screen? Well imagine instead you had to either play it in a little box on your tv screen, or have it stretched out so that the game looks wierd.

    It has absolutely nothing to do with the graphics of the game, again, and everything to do with the resolution. If you have a terrible old monitor then it probably looks fine to you.

    Indeed, too bad the game looks like shit at all resolutions.

    i said one of the most popular games in Asia...unless I missed something really crucial, Soulja Boy ain't an online game~

    and i could care less of Soulja Boy...I only know him by name~ never listened to his music, and never will. (Eminem can eat his *** for all I know)

    I think you missed the point. Just because it's popular (an mmo, or music, or games etc), not everyone is going to like it but it has the potential to be MORE popular with a few tweaks.

    I didn't like this game as I don't like games with low resolutions either. Diablo II was made 100x better with it's resolution update with the expansion. That's in my opinion anyway.

    I don't like playing games that are too 'zoomed in'.

    You said that people should stop complaining about the resolutions because the game is just sooo popular.

    Its called an analogy. Wikipedia it.

    My point was that it makes no sense to say that you can't complain about something because it's popular. ;/ You basically implied that just because DnF is popular that it means people have no right to complain about it. WoW is the most populated MMO to date but that doesn't stop people from dissing the sh*t out of it.

    That's because they're used to playing Starcraft at the same resolution.

    This.

    I stopped playing DnF because is a pain in the *** to look at on a 23" LCD.

    Not to mention that there's a HUGE blackspace on the left and right side of my screen. Is almost like watching a widescreen movie upside down.
