It makes sense on all ultrawide monitors. On my 34" 1500r curve is just about right.

Is this FALD and how many zones?
Also, with these monitors is there a way to play a game and also have a stream or video running on the outer edges of the monitor?

If you run windowed your game for a lot of the games you have no issue sizing the window on 2/3 of the screen , and depending on the application you can write a script to resize it and move the window to the position you like and make the windows bar and borders disappear with auto hotkey I used it to force borderless window on older apps that do not support it ! The newer games are more hit or miss since they have things more locked down !
