Friends, playing WITP AE has been tough on me the past few years even with glasses. I write this for those that are experiencing similar issues. I took the plunge and bought a 32 inch monitor and the results are fantastic.

Yeah, I got a larger monitor with my new rig. Now when Iook at the game on my old monitor, it feels in retrospect like I was trying to play on a postage stamp.

Absolutely, bigger is better. I'm down to 48" from 72". So, I am improving!

PS: yeah, bunch of health issues.

I play on a portable computer. My glasses won't work if the computer is on a desk so I lay down or recline and have the computer on my chest with the screen about 30 cm or 12 inches from my eyes . . .

The problem that I have is when a cat wants to lay on my chest . . .

I went from a 24" to 32" BenQ curved monitor just for WITP and loving it!

I have the same problem with my cat, but at least I can see the screen.

My Cat constanly wants my attention whem I'm gaming and he knows he will get it when he acts like my monitor is a cat scratcher. He almost pulled it over once URGH!

I use a projector instead of a monitor, projecting onto the far wall of my den. This makes the screen 45 inches by 60 inches. Enhances the experience!!
