You never know... They might be releasing a patch for that soon.

Why is everyone laughing all of a sudden?


If they don't change the font into a nice, easily readable nice hand-writing type thing, I'm going to scream. Actually, I sense they'll never live it down. I feel that many arguments in the future will delve into the font choice. Maybe they don't realise they need to change the font? Maybe nobody has told them? Can we get given an e-mail address for someone in charge of the font and e-mail them constantly about their need to change the font?

This is the best thing I've seen of the game so far. Ie not-combat oriented screenshot.

The interface is not fitting to the atmosphere, but it will probably change. Besides navigational and man-machine ergonomy, eyecandy is the easy part of an interface I'd say. (Blizzard (warcraft team) are masters at this)

The font is horrbible as it is. It's not even that bad, but the O with the dot in it makes it illegible. I hope that's not just because I keep reading it as a capital Theta.
