...and the mods on the steam workshop that seem to address it don't load. Is there a recommended mod that fixes this? I tried Font Overhaul and Better Readable Font Mod, and neither worked.
The default is a bold font for some reason, and also weirdly tiny, so it looks like all the pixels that should have been used for tracking were instead used up making the letters fatter - but not more legible. It makes the game look about 20 years old.
Notice the massive spaces between words in the first sentence but how the letters are practically smashed together in the words: "will take you to the Character View" is a great snippet: the "ta" of "take" are not distinct letters, for instance, but the "C" in "Character" is almost not obviously a part of the rest of the word. It's all very hard to read on my monitor.
