Some players change the amount of t/inch even on powerful hardware due to the habit of playing on certain settings.

Next, click on the Settings button.
The Video tab in General will contain monitor settings and display options such as
- resolution - You can choose not only the number of dots per inch that you are comfortable playing with, but also set the screen aspect ratio (4 by 3, 16 by 9 and others);
- display mode - play full screen mode or the game will be opened in the window. The developers do not recommend displaying window display, since computer resources will be additionally used to maintain the operating system interface.
To make a 4 by 3 screen, focus on the numbers next to the resolution when you make a choice.
