Hi! I've played this game off and on since launch, and I'd like to preface this by saying that I love the game and the community but especially the GMs who do amazing things with support. I've never had a more responsive GM team in an MMO before.
That said, this game desperately needs better support for increasing font sizes for visually impaired players.
The "large" text size for the chat window is still 'very' small, and the "Larger" UI setting actually causes a lot of menus to become partially or completely nonfunctional. For example, the build window will be crushed together so that only 2 of 3 specs are visible and you can't even click on the abilities, which means you can't set your water abilities from this menu: https://i.imgur.com/n665xud.jpg
Likewise, the item preview menu will cut off the "stowed/drawn" options at the bottom, making those unavailable: https://i.imgur.com/Ahoce4y.jpg
All the while, the text in the chat log and menus is just painfully small. And I mean that literally; I get eyestrain from trying to flip through the trading post: https://i.imgur.com/QmsbY0O.jpg
(^I realize that one isn't obviously 'off' for people with normal vision, but please trust me when I say it causes me physical pain to try to squint at these).
Now, can I run the game at a lower resolution in full screen mode? I mean, yes. But it'll look terrible and alt+tabbing out will cause this huge lag and resize other windows, which makes looking at the wiki just a huge pain.
And quite frankly I shouldn't need to do that. Other games have figured this out for a while now. This game is lovely, the story is amazing, the devs are really cool and passionate, but it just makes me really sad that we're 10 years in and I still can't read things without it hurting me to do so.
The biggest things would be adding more options for significantly larger font scaling and fixing the menus that become crushed in the "Larger" option to have scrolling so you can reach the bottom of said menus at this resolution.
Thank you for your time in reading this. If anyone has any other suggestions besides the resolution trick (or if you have suggestions for how to make alt+tabbing while using said trick less annoying), please do share them! I would really appreciate it ❤️
