Borderless Fullscreen and windowed Fullscreen describe the same thing, a window they resize to take up 100% of the screen. This shouldn't be default, and it is! This mode only utilizes a portion of your hardware, and is frankly only useful if you plant on tabbing out of the game without closing it (for streaming or chatting purposes I imagine). Every time I start a modern game I have to go switch it to exclusive fullscreen so I can get as much performance out of my PC as possible, and I am not even sure how it became the default or why, it just seemed to happen.
Oh I see, im a returning PC gamer (several years on consoles) and I've always been reading about how "borderless is the best way to play" but I have no idea why
It's like there's some weird propaganda movement out there pushing borderless windowed mode, it's so weird and I don't understand
