This game i just bought today has something seriously ( for me ) wrong with the camera, it could be my setup. When i started the game and got past the tutorial in the open world adventure mode, the camera perspective instantly started making me nauseous and very unwell.

I also had a steam version of this game as well, so i thought i would load that up to see if it made me sick too, but it didn't

I have added two pictures which hopefully show the different perspectives.

What could be different between the steam version and the GOG version? i can add some video later too so you can see what i mean

I just started a new game in the steam version and the same camera issues popped up with the same perspective problems. It seems to connected to the old game i have cloud saves maybe...

This is very confusing.

For the save that i had, when i went into the next area of, verdant forests, the camera backed way out and gave me that perspective that i was so happy to avoid....!

Make sure you have the latest GPU drivers installed and also that the game is fully patched.

The GOG version seems to be streched to a widescreen aspect ratio. Try other resolutions in-game and disable stretching of full screen graphics, in your graphic card's control panel.

i have nvidia but haven't found where to do the disabling of stretching on 1280x1024 it seems the least stretched though

Go to - Adjust desktop size and position - No scaling.

It's in the NVIDIA control panel. See screenshot.
Right‐click the Windows desktop, then click NVIDIA Control Panel from the context menu to open it.

Thank you i think this has gotten to a more managable level, it looks like it has expanded and isn't so squished... though it is still uncomfortable, when you are changing the camera from i guess low to the ground looking out to moving up and looking own on you and things. the, world view seems to curve things
