When I first saw it I was reminded of the Macintosh's from my school days ..

Fugly as hell but much easier to read .. would like a way to adjust the size in options menu as going through each and every channel is a bit annoying.

New font is terribad. Everything is much less readable.

Also, if you seriously can't figure out how to make more than one font work in your rendering system, you need better engineers. Like stat.

I happen to love the new font. I don't understand what the problem is.

Abloobloobloo! Cry

Also, an option to select font size would be nice. We're not all 67-year-olds with sight problems or playing on our 3 inch mobile mobile phone screens.

Do YOU like to undock?

New font is a million times better than the old one, it's crisp, legible and very easy on the eyes.

In the headers it's also simply gorgeous <3

Bit disappointed by the new font. Cry
Readable? Yes, much more so....but it does look like MS-DOS circa 1985!!

Also, somehow I can only choose two sizes 100% and 90%. I was under the impression there would be more options... why not call them small and large instead.
Anyway, to be honest, one looks too big and the other too small in my screen. I would have to select something like 95% to look closer to the old one.

The font is ok but it doesn't scale. On a 30" monitor or greater it looks like it was created for the elderly. After UI scaling it's better but then it bleeds into other characters badly. Needs to scale better.


Yes, I have a 37' monitor, and I feel like i am in an old folks home. LOL

I can read "You have been Warp scrambled" from my kitchen as I beg my wife to make something.

Comments about how this looks "on your machine" would be a LOT more useful if you would care to take a moment to mention what hardware and graphics settings you are using.

It is currently not possible to toggle between the new font and the old one. While we appreciate that this is something a lot of people are asking for, it simply cannot be done in the current font rendering system.

So made it possible. Dont you have any programmers?
