I don't know if other players have had the same problem, but playing Hegemony Gold (again) I find some ridiculously minor thing to complain about: Playing on a 1366x768 monitor, the font sometimes isn't really what you could call easily readable (specifically the numbers 1 and 2 are hardly distinguishable in the mouseover tooltips) from a reasonable distance to the monitor. I understand that 1366x768 is what was a 800x600 resolution five years ago and you can't develop a game with the primary focus to look good in that resolution any more. But I wonder if you could add a possibility to make the UI (or the parts of the UI that include the small font) slightly larger overall, since the current option to make the font larger sometimes makes text too large to fit into the space you gave them. Which can look horrible.

And, well, am I the only one that thinks a monospaced font / sans serif serves a "Roman" UI better than these calligraphy-oriented serifs in italics, visualizing both Roman discipline with the monospaced font in some way and the efficiency-oriented culture with the sans serif?

As far as I understand it, sans-serif letters and numbers are easier to identify, as there are only the forms and lines needed to show this particular letter. That's why they're used in things like manuals and many instructions on signs.

Serif fonts are more comfortable to read when it comes to walls of text or to books: They seem less "artificial", because they contain lines that are not needed to indentify that letter. Has to do with that thought that minimalistic fonts are colder and have less character...

ive seen games that have font options in the option windows if that would help.
