I like to play World of Warcraft and fly around n such. Its quite pleasent. Im using 3 wide screen monitors at a bezel correct resolution of 5990x1080.
I also play a few other games CoD , Gta etc.

My question is ...

I notice on the Left screen and the Right screen, that things seem to be out of proportion, or like stretched out. While the center screen looks normal. The charecter looks to be in the proper proportion. Is this normal and the way it is?

Thanks!

This has something to do with the field of view and the fact that games are really not designed for surround gaming.
It's normal though, yeah. I have played around 12 games in surround using SoftTH and pretty much every game has the same 'issue' even when using a FOV fixer.
