No but seriousley I never had a problem with the font size & I'm playing on a LCD TV I guess it just depends on the size of your tv really & how close/far away you sit from it.

The font is tiny, it's one of the first things I noticed. It bothered me initially, but it was more of a "why is the text so small?" than "my eyes hurt!" bother.

I can definitely see it giving people trouble, so hopefully they come up with a way to increase the size.

Thanks but that didn't help me at all, i don`t want to play it in 640x480 because i invested a lot of money on my new computer.

When a person tells you your drunk, you don`t believe it, when the second person tell you the same, you don`t believe it either, a third person tells you your drunk it means that you have to go to sleep

Ah sorry, i guess i didn't read the game specification where it says "STICK YOUR EYES TO THE SCREEN IF YOU WANT TO READ CLEARLY" my bad.

When you lot stop being silly...

I have a 28" LG screen and can see & read everything perfectly. You just have to sit a little bit closer to the screen. I share my screen with PC & 360 so kinda lucky I guess. wink

You all admitted that the font size is small, well i don`t want you guys to approve me, i want a solution the this matter besides the change resolution and glue your eyes to the screen.

Even if Lar don`t admit it, we are not stupid for pointing this out over and over again, maybe if i change the topic name to "DIVINITY IS A RETARDED GAME" someone will take it in consideration around here.

Who said it was a solution?
There is none.

Issues with font size was reported many times but Larian ignored that. Feel free to return the game.

Well, the font size is just fine in my opinion. What do you want, big abomination of an ui like Fallout 3 & Oblivion? You know what are some of the most popular mods for these games? That's right, mods, that make UI smaller and therefore more suitable for a pc screen that you're not staring from across the room. The problem might probably be quite serious however, if you have one of these new idiocies that do fullhd resolution on a 20'' or even smaller panel. That however is firstly the problem with the screen and secondly PEBKAC, who has acquired said screen, not the game.

Never heard of that kind of option in a game, the point is to make it bigger, i don`t care if i have to scroll down to see all of the dialog options.(not that big)

The font is getting smaller and smaller if you raise the game resolution, that`s the problem.

I would like to have an option to adjust in game fonts size.

If it's not an issue for u, then u might as well skip this topic.

It's that simple.

Maybe someone will provide an unofficial fix that does this. I'm playing Divine Divinity 1 at 1440x900 and the default fonts are quite small at that resolution, and someone has a fix that makes them bigger. MUCH easier on the eyes, and when comparing it to the font in DKS, DKS without a doubt has very tiny font.
