A few thoughts on the DR:
1) 16:10 screenshots look like 4:3 stretched... Are they just placeholders ? Otherwise, this is a big bummer, and WS support should be downgraded to B.
2) Multi-Mon support looks pretty solid gameplay-wise. Limited support (C) seems a bit harsh, despite how important the Vert- cinematics may be.
3) You probably don't have to know how to edit the registry to get the game to run at your native res...
Try launch options "-screen-width xxxx -screen-height yyyy" (no quotes, xxxx is the desired width, yyyy is the desired height). These command line parameters work for most Unity games.

The stretched 16:10 screenshot now showing in DR is in error, somehow poorly made. It should be replaced with a proper one. The original 16:10 I took and posted in this DR was in no way stretched. For me, game rendered every basic resolution perfectly.

the registry edit does not do the thing anymore. any idea for a solution? when i change values in registry, the game changes it back on every start. i myself tried to deny access for programs to write registry. after that the value does not change anymore but the resolution remains 1920x1080.

msrblonline, if DR's fullscreen solution fails & you're using 1 graphics card, you could use the borderless solution. Instructions below

The following works for me now:
Make a Shortcut and add -popupwindow -screen-width 2560 after "XXX\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Dreamfall Chapters\Dreamfall Chapters.exe"
