Field of view (FOV)? 72 degrees?

I have default setting of "Field of view (FOV)" equal to 72 degrees.

But I see both perpendicular directions. So I suppose FOV is no less than 90 degrees.

FOV 180 FTW!
No, it makes stuff odd.

Minetest always feels a bit odd with the default FOV. Minecraft has nearly the same value (70), but it looks different IMHO

For some reason my 180 FOV behaves strange.

120 is probably the best FOV

Seems like FOV depends on the width of your screen. The wider your screen, the higher FOV degree.

No, it doesn't

FOV depends on corresponding setting in text file. But it seems MT processes this setting incorrectly.
It seems like a bug.
