I am personally a CSGO player, and play with a 4:3 stretched resolution. Because of this, there is no way for me to get the same feel as I would normally with CSGO. I cannot really get invested in the game, as I will not be able to transfer any skills I have had from any other shooters, and it will take a while for me to get used to each sensitivity.
Another thing I have heard is that 4:3 stretched gives an unfair advantage. This is simply not true. Targets are still the same size, but just appear larger. You also get a reduction in horizontal FOV. Because of this, targets also appear to move horizontally more quickly.

This is not likely to happen soon as this is a similar argument to the 21:9 debate.
Does Overwatch not support 4:3 at all?
If it does, then the method of upscaling can be set on your GPU (e.g. via Nvidia Control Panel) and doesn’t need to happen within Overwatch.
Overwatch has no 4:3 support. If you play on a 4:3 resolution then there is a widescreen letterbox.
does the new overwatch “2.0” support 4:3 if it doesnt why please like like relaly man like really man please we all will most of us dont want our aim to like get ruined just caouse some game doesnt support some aspect ratio that we really need please try to make it happen
4:3 and widescreen monitors are rare, and not worth the time to create support for. This was addressed on the old forums (now removed), and the developers said this (paraphrased).
Having different monitor sizes can give advantages/disadvantages and is a slippery slope for competitive shooters. Because Overwatch 2 will have both PvE and PvP elements, it’s not likely their stance will change.
