One of the reasons I put off getting corrective lenses for a long time and kept trying to use contacts despite how horrible they make my eyeballs feel, is that I have an extremely wide peripheral vision. I can see my fingers wiggle behind the plane defined by my shoulders, I will react to motion out there.

Having my FoV dumbed down to 90º sounds like hell, especially in a game where we are looking for opponents.

Playing Doom on a widescreen monitor with the FoV modifications made it a lot less annoying. I want that even more today.
