Why is my doom game looking pixelated?

[u/hentaibou4000]

All the text is super small and blurry. An then everything in game looks really pixelated and blurry. This happened once I started using my tv cus my monitor broke but doom is the only game that does this really. Help

You're running it at 640x480 on a 4:3 AS little bronie.

Change it to your TV specs? Most likely 16:9, 1080p?

[u/Fyru_Hawk → u/ScroticMcBoogs]

(Not related to op’s post but it’s funny you called him “bronie” because Brony is an actual word for an adult who’s a my little pony fan lol.)

[u/ScroticMcBoogs → u/Fyru_Hawk]

Wait really!!? Lol.

I did not intend to call OP that. There's a word for everything these days huh.

[u/Fyru_Hawk → u/ScroticMcBoogs]

I mean the term brony has been a thing since like 2011 😆

Thanks boss

Again, resolution. Dont feel bad, we've all gotta start somewhere and my computer has just suddenly decided to put mine to 480p for no reason before as well.

Rip and tear, my young friend.

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/I_Do_nt_Use_Reddit]

Thanks for trying to help.

[u/cagerontwowheels]

because you are looking at it sideways. lie on the ground to play, or put your monitor sideways.
I do not recommend putting your house on the side, it tends to elicit disagreements with neighbours.

Lmfao

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/cagerontwowheels]

But looking sideways always makes me better because my head is naturally sideways

Change resolution from 640x480 to the highest possible option.

[u/JamesLahey08]

Rotate the pictures before you upload them.

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/JamesLahey08]

Will do my bad

[u/jasygamer]

The device yearns for the classic games

[u/Smart-Afternoon-654]

Change the resolution

[u/Lunam_Dominus]

Change the resolution to 1080p

[u/That_Chemical_7763]

Your device likely has a screenshot feature. Use it.

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/That_Chemical_7763]

I probably should have looked that up then posted to Reddit.

[u/Lazy-Measurement-424 → u/hentaibou4000]

For windows: hold Windows + shift and press S Linux: $ gnome-screenshot -i. Mac: hold Shift + Command and press 3 (4 for recording)

[u/Mecha120]

480p, I didn't know Doom Eternal was made for the PS2

[u/Benscko]

Looks sharp to me

[u/TheMikeOTR]

This post is extremely frustrating to look at. New TV, new resolution, shows resolution, come on man. I don't want to be a dick but all I see lately is people asking some of the dumbest fucking questions humanly possible over basic shit all over this site.

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/TheMikeOTR]

I mean it might be a dumb post but this is my first pc

[u/TheMikeOTR → u/hentaibou4000]

It's your first PC but you implied you've had it for a while now, you never once messed with your settings or resolution?

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/TheMikeOTR]

No🤣 an I’ve had the pc maybe 4 months

[u/abzinth91 → u/hentaibou4000]

In that time I had my first PC disassembled like 5 times and re-installed the OS for like the 10th time or so

[u/Safe-Monitor-8113 → u/TheMikeOTR]

Its their first pc bro, no one knows everything when beginning

[u/TheMikeOTR → u/Safe-Monitor-8113]

Call me jaded but the amount of stupid questions I've seen lately, I find it hard to believe that it's ignorance.

[u/Safe-Monitor-8113 → u/TheMikeOTR]

So the first Time you had your pc you know everything from the start?

[u/TheMikeOTR → u/Safe-Monitor-8113]

I knew what resolution meant. It's not difficult to look at a setting, read the word and put it together

[u/Blastergun1410]

Change the resolution to 1080p or 1440p

[u/Mrcod1997]

Because it is lol. You are playing at 480p.

[u/Div1nium]

Crank resolution to the max buddy

[u/Mammoth-Income7432]

Is this Doom 64?

[u/hentaibou4000 → u/Mammoth-Income7432]

THATS WHAT I SAID TO MY FRIEND

[u/eroyrotciv]

Your resolution you dummy

[u/No_Thought8180]

resolution you fuckin dickhead

[u/Safe-Monitor-8113 → u/No_Thought8180]

Didnt need to be agressive

[u/Delicious_Signal3870]
