I'll just copy this because she is always right:

1. Font is good. It solves the reading/differentiation issues of the old font and is actually scalable.(I also like tears the new font has delivered)

Not a veteran, just bitter..

Please supply a screenshot, otherwise you are not to be believed. I have my UI at 90% and the font is fine.

At the end of everyday I'm going to count the numbers and will post the total in the OP.



No one needs your fonts poll. You could do that when Singualrity was on, now live with it, I already said that in some other topic.
If you want to troll you better say something like Naga should be a torp boat or how many skills Caldari have to train to fly it.

2. New font is bad - explain why it is fail:

First of all it is broken at the corners, which makes it harder to read than the old expanded font.
Secondly it scales wrong. At UI scale 90% it becomes so wrongly rendered it's scrambled and unreadable.
Thirdly it is not even optional.



I have mine in UI 90% works perfectly well and is very readable on my screens.


Same here, 90% UI and it is rendered perfectly, readability is increased.

As a graphical designer, I know that for screen reading, fonts have to be practical above being "pretty".
And this new font is just that, practical and very very readable everywhere.

I understand people have a hard time adjusting, just wait, In a week you won't want to switch back.
And to me, this font is more sci-fi'ish than the old plain boring font.

And Dsan isn't mis-read as Osan anymore, or 0san - so yeah.

Gj CCP, where can I download it ?


Write me down for this one too :) Absolutely agree

OP is a dev? oO

anyhoo:

1. New font is good - explain why you like it:
I can see it without sitting 2 feet from my TV. Its clear, legible and most of all its BIG enough to use with my TV. Did i mention I can finally sit in a chair and play EvE instead of pulling a chair 2 feet from the TV cause the font is both large enough and clear enough?

1. New font is good - explain why you like it:

A lot better readability
Option of size

PS: I seriously cant understand why some people dont like it when its clearly a GREAT improvement.
Most likely cause they at republicans.

The font is good but could be better.

Just compare the font in SWTOR and the new one.
