1. New font is good - explain why you like it:
Easier on the eyes. Less likely to misspell the name of a character or system when announcing war targets and destinations in fleet comms. |

To make everyone happy they should just make it so you can select which font you want ever thing to be displayed in. I'm not much of a programmer but I would assume that such a change would be easy. |

The new font's generally fine. What is most important, is legibility. I'll take legibility anyday over style - hands down, no contest.
Yes, of course, the issues with scaling/sizing/clarity needs to be addressed - they haven't gotten it pat down quite right yet. The thing that sets people off (unconciously perhaps) is probably the "slashed" zero - the rest of the font resembles Comic Sans (which I have no issues and couldn't care less).
It was certainly an eye strain the first time, now, after several hours, they've both adapted.

2. New font is bad - explain why it is fail: Changing a UI for a font? It's like changing Car because a tire is broken. Result? Buggy UI... |

1. New font is good - explain why you like it: I can now read most things easily. I somehow like the scaleability. Maybe it is because i do use glasses :) For me it is more eye relaxing now. |

This.
I have my U at 90% and the font set to 12 point and it is damn near perfect fr the menus. Chat is more readable at more font sizes and the ability to tell S from 5, O from 0 and G from 6 is damn near priceless.
Ignore the Font haters. I like to watch them rage.

1. New font is good!
It is better readable then the old and I *finally* can see the difference between 8-B, 0-O, 1-I and so on.
Besides, I just played for an hour and I almost forgot that it was new. |

1. New font is good : As a graphical designer, I know that for screen reading, fonts have to be practical above being "pretty". And this new font is just that, practical and very very readable everywhere.
I understand people have a hard time adjusting, just wait, In a week you won't want to switch back. And to me, this font is more sci-fi'ish than the old plain boring font.
And Dsan isn't mis-read as Osan anymore, or 0san - so yeah.

#1 The font is GREAT
It is much MUCH easier to read now. The idiots flooding the forum with one line topics had their chance to give feedback on the font and it is time to move on.
CCP KEEP the font! |

2. New font is bad - explain why it is fail:
As i complained about during the testing phase, I can't sit and play EVE for an extended period of time with new font without getting dizzy and/or queasy. To counteract this, I have to turn the UI down to 90%, which makes some of the UI elements harder to click and resizes the entirety of the UI rather than just the font itself. And even after that, I still can't play for extended periods as the new font is still too prominent and sometimes non-uniform in UI elements.

1 The new font is good and more readable.
2 It could look beter and more modern. though. If only it didn't look like an ms-dos font...
I still think that the Neocom panel should be all-caps. It would look better. |

1. New font is good - explain why you like it: It's clearer and more readable.
I suspect that anyone who says otherwise uses weird hardware. I noticed that many people complaining about the new font seem to play EVE on 15 inch laptops. EVE is not playable on such tiny screens to begin with. I play on a 24 inch monitor (or rather, two of those) and that's just about big enough. So get a machine that does not suck so bad. Developers cannot design a modern game for use with hardware most people stopped using half a decade ago. |

The new font is bad:
I can't get the same density of information as before, because the font at 90% scaling isn't readable.
The new font is remembering me on the Amiga computer from the 80th |

1. New font is good - explain why you like it: Clear, crisp, scalable ___________________ Seperators for thousands_______________ Different scaling possibilities in chat, context and rest_____________________________
The bad: Scaling with UI scaling, tab headers are scaled too. The font is too condensed under certain settings, which makes seperating the letters difficult. The decimal points disappear.
In general, /me likes |

2. New font is bad - explain why it is fail:
Can't look at it for more than few sec - eyes start to hurt. Everything looks very stretched, and i can't change the size of it in any way. Here is the difference between RMB menu and the overview: http://i.imgur.com/7Hh3a.jpg
This might look OK for you, but I have pretty small laptop screen, and I simply can't read things that are so vertically stretched. I think i had same problem with old font, but you could make it expanded, and that option was always ON for me... |

First of all it is broken at the corners, which makes it harder to read than the old expanded font. Secondly it scales wrong. At UI scale 90% it becomes so wrongly rendered it's scrambled and unreadable. Thirdly it is not even optional.
I have mine in UI 90% works perfectly well and is very readable on my screens. lying newb

Hi and wtf? You think I have some money stashed away JUST for a new screen? Go buy new monitor if this new font is bad for you... just LOL.
Give the option to switch between fonts and there will be NO problems... |

The font is too large and the scaling doesn't work correctly. Sorting out the scaling would useful |
