February 24, 20169 yr It's possibly a bit hard to see with the JPEG compression, but some letters appear wider, blurrier and bolder than other instances of the same letter (e.g. 'the "blue stone scepter,"'), and others are more narrow - compare the 'e' in 'sapphire' to any of the other 'e's, for example. I have the font scale set to the default of 100% and turning Font Ligatures off doesn't seem to make a difference. It's hardly game-breaking stuff, just a bit strange and hard on the eyes.
February 25, 20169 yr Hey Igny, Welcome to the forums and thanks for joining us! This was fixed in the 3.00 patch and we are currently at 3.01. What version of the game do you currently have? Thanks a bunch! Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
February 25, 20169 yr Author Hi, thanks for the quick response! The title screen says 'v3.01.977 PX1 PX2 -steam', and all files validated successfully when I did the 'Verify integrity of game cache' thing on Steam. I remember a more general font blurriness in an early version of the 2.0 patches, but here it seems to be individual letters that stand out, and I've only noticed it in item descriptions - despite looking similar, the Journal and Cyclopedia are fine, as far as I can tell.
February 25, 20169 yr Okay, thanks Ingy. I'll keep an eye out just for it and if I see it agian, I will reopen the bug. Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
February 25, 20169 yr Also having this issue past 3.01. It's not always present - it seems to randomly break on loading (either loading a save or loading a new area). For me it has been like this with soulbound item descriptions ever since they were added to the game, which is to say all game versions I've played since WM1 release. Edit: while the screenshot is also of the scepter, this happens with all soulbound items. Edited February 25, 20169 yr by Izichial
February 25, 20169 yr This seems to happen every time I get a pop-up as a soulbound item is upgraded and sometimes when examining the item in inventory.
February 25, 20169 yr This also happens to me quite frequently when I try to read the description of a soulbound weapon on first try. If I close and reopen it gets fixed. This happens still as of 3.01.
February 25, 20169 yr I'm getting it too. Both issues, actually. "Time is not your enemy.

February 26, 20169 yr Hey guys, I have written up a new bug about the issue and added it to our database. Thanks and keep on rockin! Obsidian Discord || Grounded Discord
March 6, 20169 yr Seems indeed to be exclusive to the descriptions of soulbound weapons, no matter if fully or half unlocked or not even bound to a character yet. The display is always jumbled upon bringing up the description for the first time, after transitioning from one map to another(?).
March 6, 20169 yr Indeed. Getting that all the time with soulbound weapons. "Time is not your enemy.

March 6, 20169 yr I confirm this bug in 3.01. This can skip tentatively with close/re-open. But its boring.
March 8, 20169 yr Closing and reopening the description does fix it but isn't the ideal solution, obviously.
