Reminds me of MS-DOS. Srsly, something like comic sans wouldn't work?

meh.



Wasn't sure if you were trolling until you suggested comic sans.

Alternatively, maybe instead of crying about a font you should take some of your own advice and HTFU.

Although I don't like the new font that much at least I can tell the difference between an O and a 0


I know the difference between a O and a 0

For instance. 10000000. Those are 0's. Oh. That is an O.

Font doesn't scale smoothly. When I scale UI the font gets smaller which is nice but then it blends into other things and gets harder to read. And by modifying the UI scale my icons in my overview also get smaller which sucks.

Exactly. This font is like Incarna 2.0. Maybe we should call it Fontcarna...

Anything would be better than this garbage font they came up with. Literally, anything.

The font is objectively better. Those that disagree are unqualified to disagree.

The spacing, how it looks on overview, ship hanger, context menus, etc.

There are tons of readable fonts that do not look like ****.

Why do you even care?

You've got your new easier to read font. Be happy.

We'd like the option to use the old font.

As a designer and typographer I agree.

Anyone suggesting comic sans is a clear troll. The better option would be papyrus.

Im repeating myself but... Why did you not share your opinion when this was being TESTED a month ago? Or is this just a fail troll trying to start an expansion flame war?

Hate to break it to you but this expansion is not going to get your forum alt alot of likes unless you cheer up



I hate the new font as well. I posted about it during testing. So did many others.


I do love many of the changes in the expansion, too bad the font affects so many aspects of game-play.
