32 inch 16:9 or 34 inch 21:9 for gaming?

[Gdourado]

Hello, how are you?

I am looking for a monitor. 
The usage will be almost exclusively gaming. 
At first, I was set on a 32 inch 1440p 165hz monitor like the LG or Acer ones.

But then I went reading and a lot of people online claim that ultrawide gaming is such a great experience and that it truly changes the gaming experience and that it is much more enjoyable and all that. 

Now, I never gamed at ultrawide displays, so I don't really know, that is why I am asking for your opinions.
What is more emersive and enjoyable for gaming?
I know the 32 is probably bigger, as a 34 ultrawide is like a 27 inch screen stretched to the sides.
But still, what are your thoughts and experiences?

Thank you. 
Cheers

21:9 is superior in every way, it is a much better aspect ratio, after you get it you simply never go back to the normal 16:9 standard.

What about in shooters? Isn't the HUD too far away from your field of vision at that point? Or do the HUD elements sit about at the same area they would normally sit at 16:9, not at the screen edges?

 

I have never gamed on a 21:9 monitor, so I have no idea.

Naah I've never had any issue with shooters... a lot of games properly support 21:9 already, CS:GO for instance... only complains that if you record it then you get the black bars on youtube
