I love ultrawide for work, and like it for FPS and racing. However, anything with a mouse driven user interface where I travel more to click action bars, shortcuts, etc. gets on my nerves. Then there's older games that don't support ultrawide that display black bars instead. I think there's more to like about a larger 16:9 for me when gaming is concerned.
Do you have any advice on dealing with these issues I have? I reckon it doesn't bother everyone.
Black bars don't bother me much and as for games like RTS or SIM type games, I never had much of a issue with it since I'm used to keyboard shortcuts and dpi changes in the fly with a decent mouse at this point.
