Does anyone find 4:3 to be unnerving in 14:8 screens? I think it's because of the black letterboxes, but they make me nervous. Take the Sonic CD intro for example:

Ok fine I'm not right

It doesn't matter how thick the letterbox is, but if it's more close to thin than thick, it's a problem.

no? 4:3 is typically known as fullscreen in alot of games, its basically an smaller version of 16:9 (16:9 would be like 1920x1080 while 4:3 would be 640x360)

How are you unsettled by screen formats, just asking. Cause I don't see how this could be unsettling.

I honestly don't even get it since it is just a black letterbox like what is so scary about a black letterbox, so no

Waitwaitwait, idk if i'm mentally insane or not, but you basically said "think of the black letterboxes as people, so unsettling" which is... you know what yeah i'm not gonna argue it's not like i'm internally destroyed beucase of yet another Twitter drama (about a serious topic against someone I was close to)
