Hello, new player here! I love the writing in Fallen London and was really looking forward to reading more of it in Sunless Sea, but I was disappointed to find the blurriness and size of the text quite tiring to look at for longer than 10 minutes. : ( So sad. I know the devs are aware of this and working on it, yet it seems that they've been aware of this and working on it since early 2014, no? I was just wondering what the current status is re: improving legibility.
I guess if most players have no problems with text size/blurriness then it hasn't been a priority. Tough luck for me. What are your experiences on this, guys?
Btw, I'm playing on a 13" Macbook, no retina. It gives me the option of either 1280x800 or 1440x900. At the higher resolution the text is crisp but tiny, and forget about reading mouseover text which is even tinier. At the lower resolution the font size is better but also fuzzier, and the mouseover is especially fuzzy. O my sorrow. It is deep like the zee.

It looks like the answer may be "With Zubmariner"

"We're moving to Unity 5 in order to make some technical changes (eg text scaling) but the base game won't change significantly."

Not much of an update but FBG has been upgrading the story nexus engine for fallen london a lot lately and zubmariner is in a state where you can sign up to be on the alpha testing lottery. No word about if a font fix is still on the table or not though. This update basically boils down to we are further along in the timeline to what I said last year but the predicted events are still ongoing so who can say.
