What the fuck is up with developers using shitty fonts for ants with colors that cause eye fatigue nowadays? A better example is REmake on Gamecube vs the remaster. In the GC version, the font was nice, big and clear. In the remaster they made it small as fuck, although it's not too bad because it's all white.

"Simplistic" UI is the new trend in Media, oftentimes use to hide simplistic devs.

Gee it's almost as if games made for consoles with lower non-HD resolutions had a lot of trouble with people reading their texts and were forced to always default to white on black with big characters.

What a surprise, I really didn't know this before.

TNO's reading interface is fine, there's nothing wrong with having the image on the left and the text is far from unreadable.

And there was no reason to stop either. This new trend of making everything small and low-contrast is bullshit and you know it. Also, Morrowind had more legible fonts than nu-wolfenstein and it was smaller as well.

>>13744672

Bright white on gray is better as it creates better contrast. Although as shitty as IW was, it was more legible.

I was going to bring this up, does this wolfenstein game not even include the ability for font size or HUD modifications? Seems like a pretty easy edition to a game's options especially if even boring indie titles like Sunless Sea have it.

It does not. There is a way to decrypt and edit the fonts but it's quite the process.

That they'd make the 'original document' so stained and sucffed up that you can't read it without subtitles in the first place is retarded. Unless the game was set decades later the text would be perfectly legible too.

I think you cracked the plot of the whole Wolfenstein series. They are going use time machines to alter the course of events by sending a Big Guy back in time to masquerade as a Spitfire pilot, crash his plane deliberately on the shores of Dunkirk and then be taken prisoner, where he will then proceed to crash the Reich with no survivors.

Most of the text is legible enough and with the nip voices I understand most of what they say anyhow. But in the lore and character info pages the text becomes pure hell to read.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serif

Most newspapers use serif fonts. The newspaper article in OP uses sans-serif font. They tried to make the article look authentic but they used wrong font. Newspapers in 1945 used serif font. The text also isn't justified.
