I’ve been unable to find the words to describe it, but this is my issue exactly, it’s the back shadowing of the letters not being as dark that make a big difference for me, and also the letters seemed a bit more compressed together. When I get home, I’m trying the fix for the chat box suggested that will make things bigger, but while that may help the compressed letter issue, I’m not sure if it will help the shadow problem.
Hi all, we are still looking into this. If you have the ability to change resolutions on your monitor, could we get a few people to try scaling up to 1440 or 4k? Just to see if fonts look off for multiple resolutions, or if it seems like a 1080p specific issue.
why it wasn't tested before deployment and these issues identified.

To be fair, the new font rendering was there on PTS week 1. I don't recall players complaining about it on PTS, though, even though what you saw on PTS 1 was exactly the same was what you see now on Live.
I know the reason I didn't raise any issue on PTS was because I have a 1440p screen with high UI scaling, so while things looked noticeably different, it wasn't bad and I honestly didn't think much about it.
But surely there were 1080p players who were on PTS, and they didn't say much either.

Also one more item as a workaround for now.
Increase your Chat Window Font Size (Settings>Social>Chat Settings>Text Size) or Interface Scale (Settings>Video>Interface>Use Custom Scale)

Any feedback about different width of chinese characters under default font?It seems like a reproduce old issue.
And with some addons using custom font like pchat or CJKchat,chat window will not show any Chinese characters while update from .ttf to .slug,u can see a long blank following “CJKchat”

I don't know why zos updated the font, the original font was very good
On this thread and another.... so many people are trying to excuse Zenimax by using the small amount of players that participate on the PTS, but I feel like even if just a handful are drawing attention to something that they see an issue with, it should be obvious that handful is going to become much more once the feature/change goes live.... and honestly, I'm just baffled that somehow Zenimax themselves could not see that the new rendering is worse and a drop in quality instead of an improvement.Kevin’s reply seemed to me to say that for an issue like this they consider the low volume of feedback on the PTS too little for them to consider any action from that alone. They were only going to look into it further if there was sufficient pushback once it hit live. I’m hopeful they see that it is an issue to be addressed now that it’s more than just a few people saying something on the PTS.

Chinese font is also difficult to read @ZOS_Kevin
