Please add a higher FOV Slider for more accessibility (please read entire thing before responding)

  • The development team mentions again and again that they want accessibility for players, and that is very good to have. But a lot of players get motion sickness, nausea, headaches, etc simply by playing at the locked 90 FOV even in little bits at a time.

    The excuse to not change this is that, and I quote, "Sea of Thieves was designed at 90 FoV max. There are no plans to change that for multiple reasons. One being it would ruin the gorgeous work done by the art team. Secondly is the game passes accessibility at a global Microsoft level" and "The FOV modification for Steam players was never intentional and has been removed in order to restore the intended settings of Sea of Thieves. The game is designed for 90 FoV Maximum, anything beyond that looks distorted and broken."

    This is a sad excuse, when there are a number of players who have "cheated" the game on YouTube, etc and you can see that there is very little, if not anything, that is broken, and the game still looks great! In terms of PvP advantage, and things of that sort, it is not an advantage if everybody has access to the same FOV slider that they can change based on how comfortably they would like to play the game.

    Many people including myself, and quite frankly, many others across this forum, reddit, steam, discord, etc, have issues with the FOV cap being so low and suffer from things like motion sickness (I know there's an article stating how players can deal with this better but for some players those tips do not work). So please dev team if you're reading this, at least increase the slider just a little bit more (100, 110, etc) so that more players can comfortably enjoy the game to their liking and you won't lose more and more players.

  • @celto7368 naw.

  • The ability to modify FoV beyond the in-game limits was never intentional and has been removed in order to restore the intended settings of Sea of Thieves.

    The game is designed for 90 FoV Maximum, anything beyond that looks distorted and broken.

    There are no intentions to change this in future.
