I may have to see this in-game for myself to be definite but speaking as someone with pretty notable vision problems, I find this legible and cleaner although the computerized font still takes me a second to recognize but I guess it's like that for effect and not really a big issue since I can still read it. Having legible font is really important to me in games, especially text-heavy ones, so, thanks for paying extra attention to this aspect of design. I rarely, if ever, see things like this taken into consideration so it means a lot to me. And please god never add cursive. I cannot read it at all, can't even tell you the letters in my signature, I just memorized the motion it takes to make it after all these years. ;v I think that writing style was deliberately made to mess with people.
Good. I'd like to be able to bold/italicize text. But if that is not important, that's okay. It is not very essential.
One better hope so, for it is painful for us Scandinavian people to encounter products that do not support unicode in this day and age.. (And I can't even imagine what's it like for people whose native languages are not based on latin characters.)
New font has been improved readability. If you say so liking, but taste is more of the previous font, for me not English-speaking, it's very useful update. I hope that the old and new font is used for different settings.
Yeah german is weird. *lol* At least we are only writing letters we also pronounce. ^^ Oh the weird "ß". There were weird letters in old english too, but you strange people dropped them. ^^
They are implementing Cyrillic letters eventually due to russian fanbase, so accents and umlauts will probably be done too. Japanese is harder.
I was just thinking about that sentence very recently, and how most people probably get it wrong. "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" actually has no S in it.
Alright, guys, good idea, just one problem, this font is like having Slaanesh in a Church, its wayy to damm difrent. When ya got a verry pixelated look, and ya make something photo-realistic or super smooth, things are gonna clash, and it would appear that font does just about that. Cant ya make it just a bit more pixelated?Or switchable?
On the first try, it does look to support at least some special char for European languages: I like it, but I also agree with the post above, it may not look particularly good with the rest of pixel art ingame.
It's a necessity. If you want accents and shit to look good and readable, you need the resolution. So you either upscale everything else to match, or do it like this. Trust me I'm a designer.
The Umlaut dots could use some additional pixels for better visibility. Like making them 4x4 pixels big instead of 1x1, where you need an electron microscope to actually notice them.
