Hey, been playing the Demo his evening and though the game is infectious brilliance and has confirmed my preorder it's a real struggle to read anything and that's severely detracting from my enjoyment

I have a 1080p 24" monitor and find it uncomfortable to sit closer than about 6'

Unfortunately CKII is a real strain to read at this distance


Are there any plans for a large text option or mod? Or any workarounds I can effect?

thanks for your time

In short, for the time being, the easiest way to negate this problem is to lower your resolution a bit. 1680*1050 is perfect on a 24incher.

This is less than ideal of course, everyone likes to play in native, but Its been a reoccuring Clauswitz engine issue these last few years.

yeah I'm sorry about making a new thread - for some reason I assumed that I was the only person with less than perfect eyesight

forgiverness purrease

I have both 20/20, as well as long-range firearms training and a stamped piece of paper certifying that I am competent at that activity. Nonetheless, I'm not pleased with the playability of CK2 in 1080p on a 24 inch monitor. In short: It's not your eyesight ;)

Forgiveness granted :D
