Why are the doors so big in video games? Some developers explain

quote [ There's basically a constant battle between view and scale to make things look right – of all the developers I spoke to, 'camera or FOV' was the first thing they answered with. One even mentioned having regular "door scale meetings" during production to deal with the issue. ]

Well it's not shoulder pads.

I don't feel like this article properly explained why FOV in video games creates a requirement for unrealistically sized environments.

In contrast with Cinema, video games have ultra wide angle cameras.
