Text Size Issues

[ED2K14Lacy]

I am playing on a PS4 & a 40 inch Samsung HD. I am on 16:9 picture size. I cannot read most text but when I switch to wide-screen I can read some (still very small compared to other games). 16:9 makes the game look the best tho. I do recall this same issue on DA2 on the Xbox 360 but I just played through without ever fixing.

In the game go to options, display, screen position and size. Then adjust the screen size with left stick to the largest possible. After I did that some text is more readable, but still some text is barely readable

That doesn't really make the problem better.  Plus, when you adjust the screen position and size you are also chopping off the borders of the display.  Cutting character icons, the mini map, and other things that do provide information off.  So those regards that isn't a good solution.

Agreed as that doesn't fix the inherent problem, which is way too small text that made the game unplayable for me.  I tried playing PS3 version on my HD LCD Samsung.  Really hoping BioWare is able to offer a real solution to make the text legible - - what's the point trying to play a RPG if you're barely able to read anything?

Yeah, I appreciate the sentiment and attempt at a solution, but this doesn't solve anything; rather trades one demon for another. Doing this means I'd lose elements of the UI like health bars, mini-maps etc.

Nice try, though.

Not to mention the fact that it doesnt completly solve it just means you dont have to work as hard to read it but its still pretty hard to read

1. PS3
2. 4:3 on a 36" CRTV

32" HD, settings at 1080p. Xbox360.

I normally sit about 2 meters away but have had to squint or scoot closer to read.

I've also played on a 50" 1080p and had to stand a couple of feet away to read anything.

I'm having the same problem. The text is so small and blurry and I cannot even read the quest descriptions, and the war table stuff is just utterly unreadable no matter how close I sit to the TV or how much I squint. I preordered this game in august and have been anticipating it forever and this is the one flaw that has ruined it for me.

I'm playing on xbox 360 and I'm not sure about the measurements of my tv off the top of my head because it wasn't me who bought it, but all I know is I've never had such problems with text in games before. It's really upsetting. I need to play, fix this!!!

I'm very upset that this forum barely offers any assistance. I've had trouble with the Keep and now with the font, which is too damn small in the Italian version of the game. Why is no one answering to our complaints? I get a terrible headache everytime I play DA:I and I'm really pissed off I payed almost 70€ for a game I can't play.

This is how Bioware pays back its customers.
