+1, game needs a better font that is easier on the eyes. Very hard too read.

Dark blue leters over black background was a big fault years ago, in Salem. Do you, guys, even try to chat in party or PM?

What the fuck is the cooting skill?

Also the poor blue bastard in a party is always ignored.

Is it a K? Is it an L? How about a T?

Please reform the title font. :)

I agree +1
Pixel art is (and always will be) better than this plastic looking Hafen you gave us here.

It is about time you learned how to read a cultured typeface. Glorious Fraktur is indeed glorious.

Cancer has more culture than your goddamn 'glorious' Fraktur.

It's always nice to see the attitude "I like that font, so fuck you all if you don't. It's a great font, and I don't give a fuck if you can't read it".
It really gets your hopes up for changes in the "important" stuff!

There are reasons cleaner fonts won over it for basically every use, except some games and memorabilia going gothic style because some people might think it's something premium.

It's always nice to engage with people with a well developed sense of humor, who take the small things in life with the gravity they merit.

I would not be opposed to perhaps add an option to switch it, but I intend to keep it as a default setting. It is a more beautiful and, indeed, cultured, typeface, and I have no problems what so ever reading it. I have a problem reading all the Latin newfaggotry that is so ubiquitous in the modern era.

We support custom clients for a reason. Even though this particular stance of mine is, indeed, one of maintaining a principle for the sake of being silly, it is nevertheless the case that one size will never fit all in terms of how to best display and render information.
