New font feedback

While true, QA is not in feedback forum sections very much, suggestion changes are pulled from the feedback section
Feedback is something pulled and considered offline, so it doesn't get that same "here is your number" response. It's not as black and white in nature. But feedback in the feedback section is very important for balance and new content.
I just wanted to clarify

 

I agree. I like previous font better.

 

I bet Phineas Drumplemouth prefers the NEW font ..

 

he doesn't read. he has people for that. the best people.

 

Did they change it, maybe adjust the width a bit? Because at first I was no likey, feeling more like I like it now, like my eyes have room to breath.

 

For me, it's just different, not better or worse, and it's just a matter of getting used to it.

 

Ive been trying to get used to it but for some reason I just cant seem to read it - ive changed the chat box font to 20pt and its semi ok but the UI stuff no

 

Yeah and if it's still giving you migraines then that's no bueno.

 

Have you tried reading glasses? I would have problems without them.

 

had an eye check not long back, my vari focals are fine (old fart here) plus I can read small fonts - but that ones just not clear for me

 

For me, it is the graduated colors from top to bottom of the font that bothers me the most. Depending on the background, it can wash out the bottom of the letters.

Please, until we get user configurable font settings, keep them plain and simple.

 

I don't like that gradient thing either, it's pretty bad at small point sizes. It wasn't already being done in live? Anyhow, the letters are just too square, and the thickness of the letters ensures that small counters like lowercase 'e' become tiny.

I'm assuming that Cyrillic "support" means that there were some characters missing from the old font, but since most of us don't care, it would be nice to have a font choice configuration so that we can use something more readable. The best is if missing characters can be detected and replaced from a fallback font.

 

Also having trouble reading with the new font, mostly the HP and focus for my character while in combat.

 

Sadly this time tomorrow is too late. I will guess no change will come. No slightly bigger. No loss of gradient and no picking a font because not enough people complained.

Having tried hard to "get used" to it. I have had a migraine all day.

This reminds me of the guys who have issues with some skill stuff and epilepsy.

No one seemed to care for those either.

As there are no medical warnings. I guess port want someone to sue them for it. While migraines are rarely fatal epilepsy can and I find it sad that reports came in and nothing happened.

Fortunately it can't be me as such a process from another country is really hard for 1 person. But. It will be sad if it comes about. But there are posts on th forums.

I feel like a doom bringer but there are reasons warnings have to go on things.

 

I finally noticed that the fizzle % on utility bar icons is almost unreadable with this font. However, in this case it's just so spindly thin that there is almost no contrast against the glyph icons.

Walk around and you can probably notice this if you have glyphs that get a higher fizzle when you are moving.

 

I don't want to assume you haven't already tried this already, but have you tried messing with your colors on your monitor at all? Just adjusting RGB slightly to see if you can find any improvement. Another suggestion could be changing the resolution you play in slightly? Finally contrast and brightness as well. Might force you to rearrange some stuff, but it might do the trick as well. :-/

 

I've poked my laptop but there's only so much you can do. Anything that isn't the native resolution tends to look fuzzy at the best of times. I did try dropping the res it didn't help. The colours are all good and calibrated.
