    Feedback - wow its like wow!

    I know this may sound ridiculous but everything in a game contributes to its feel/vibe including font/text/text boxes.
    Can we all PLEASE come together and submit feedback on how awful the big gold/times new roman(close enough) lettering is and Fable like text boxes.. it just adds more to the already obvious WOW (and even Fable) feel. Has anyone noticed that the damage hit points are confusing to read? Its because the “1”s look like “I”s or Roman numerals..just awful choice..why cant they aim in the direction of where XIII and XV are going, it is much more final fantasy like these days..they did a good job with the hp/mp/tp meters and that’s about it. That’s how the rest of the UI and game should look like..im just not impressed at all..its a simple fix/implementation and im surprised not many are bothered by it but to me it takes that FF feel away from the game.

    Please share you thoughts on this or any similar situation that you can relate to

    If your biggest problem with a game has to do with the font and text boxes, and not even that they're broken, just that they remind you of another game, then I'd say mission accomplished. Ship the game, it's complete. That's about as low-importance of a problem that a game could possibly have.

    blaah blah WoW clone blah blah

    Yes, we get it. Every MMO that exists after WoW got popular is a WoW clone. Nothing to see here, move along.

    I'm glad this critical issue was brought up in its very own topic. Thanks for sharing.

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?
