Introduction

Fellow noobs! I am here to tell you what I have learned.
SO, If you are having issues with corectly displaying your game on your TV, don't worry, the game has settings you can adjust to fix this. This issue and solution occur and applie mainly in the instance of having connected your PC to your TV via HDMI (which is pretty easy btw just check it out on google it's easy to find if you don't know how to do that). This may help you in some other display issue scenarios aswell, but I'm not aware of any others.
SO! If you manage to connect your PC to your TV and open up the game you'll probably experience the same issue I did;

The Issue


Issue: the game window is not displayed correctly! it is slightly misplassed and out of borders and you cannot a priori move it to around with your mouse. At this point the inro of the game is playing and you can either skip it or leave it playing. If you seem blocked in the game window and are unable to use your mouse, fret not! To exit the game window (and any window for that matter) press Shift+Alt+Tab simultaneously (you can find these keys at the left end of your keyboard). That was just in case you didn't know. If you are experiencing any other, different simptoms to the ones described I do not have any more advice for you unfortunately; since I am simply sharing this, one, enlightening experience I just had. If something else is not working it is probably due to some other issue I am not aware of that might be in combination with this one. Seek help! idk :/

Solution

Solution: Access the game settings either on the title screen or from inside, during the the game session. Go to Graphics Settings>Display Mode and select Bordless. This was in fact just a settings adjustment.

Outro

So that is where my wisdom sharing ends. I hope the people in need actually stumble upon this and can save themselves the trouble I had to go through. Hope this helped. See you online ;)

Updates

Update: Sooo. Apparently, that is not all. The image is still not optimal and the window is sort of stretched.. I learned that video cards like NVIDIA GEFORCE have got some setting for monitors but I'll say more when I find out more. I'll either update this guide or publish a part 2
