I was having this discussion the other day, actually, and it very much seems like the general trend is that your font can look "sci-fi" or it can look legible. The style of fonts we associate with being "sci-fi" are pretty much all illegible to a greater or lesser extent, because when you're designing a font for a movie, "looks cool and different" matters way more than "I would be happy reading this on a monitor all day".


Please take a look at the bank gothic font I linked :)
I bet you start using it for your desktop's font scheme in windows ;)

The new font was a kind of a shock for me but I already have gotten used to it. I agree its look a bit like the arial fon't and doesn't look that high tech scifi font but the readability is just so much better.

Just want to make sure the ignorant fools saying we did not say anything see this here thread in Eve General. Not to mention the blog thread as well as the Test Server Feedback thread.

Posting in another 'font sucks' tread.

Font still sucks, old one is better.
