Can Text be Enlarged?

Woof - was not able to find any option to make the dialogue text any larger - and it was *PAINFULLY* small!
Maybe our devs are working on only large monitors?

I found the quests very hard to read, even after increasing the hud to 100%
I think by using sans-serif font, made a bit bolder and a bit bigger, would be a great place to start.
I know they’re still working on the interface, but that little tweak would be a huge improvement. I actually like reading quest and npc dialog!
I second this for the text overall ingame. I have very poor eyesight (and glasses accordingly, of course) and I am struggling really hard to read the text at some places in general.
Not everything should use a serif font too imo. Especially if it's already small text.
You do not have to rework the UI to just quickly go in and create a legible font for us people who use glasses.
Thank you.
I feel like this is pretty basic UI stuff, which is why I do not understand why this basic system has not been implemented.
1080p max settings. 32 inch monitor. Have a monitor that's for gaming as well. Fonts are sharp but I'm turning into an old man lol but still a gamer
also.. make party members bigger on the map, its actually impossible to find them
1080p and wearing contacts so my vision is fine. It's just so much tinier than any other game. The UI slider only helps with the chat and quest boxes. The vast majority of the UI is still like size 7 font which is absurdly tiny and there are of course many UI windows that aren't editable in the UI slider. There needs to be a separate option in the settings for font size.
ui scaler is in the settings

BEWARE OF IT, THOUGH !!
It made all the other Windows so large for me, that i was stuck at the "STONEMASONRY"-Novice Craft-Station for about One to Two Hours.
The Window got so large for me that i couldn't find/see the "Start Job" Button anymore to make Stone into Stone-Blocks at the annoying Quest-Chain to get a Horse.
The Button was "BELOW" the lower Edge and Border of my Screen -> and i had to physically pull with the Mouse Button the Window up again - before i could finally proceed.
I noticed it only after putting for an annoying long time my boiling Anger down at being stuck for no Reason. This of Course only happened because i never had such a thing happen my whole Life - but "DAMN" the brainf~xxx i felt that Day. I was so angry i could have kicked a puppy. Only in my Imagination of Course. I would never harm real living Beings. ^.^

It's so painful right now. It's so difficult to decrypt and not really accessible for people with less optimal eyesight.
The game in his current state is unbearable for people with eyesight problem.
My eyesight is not that bad for 40+ but I have a HARD time to read the quest text / tooltips.
I stopped played early on because it was too painful. The UI scale doesn't change the problem for me.
Intrepid should find another typography designed for screen and improved readability.
Thank you!
This is not a bug. Though, when you update the HUD editor, it would be nice to have the option to change the font sizes of the texts of specific boxes. Such as on the quest box, NPC dialogue box, loot box.
While I can read the text, the text size right now is a little to small for my tastes.
Having the option to increase the font size of text would reduce eye strain for some players.
I concur and it's even more garbage on lower end machines. I recently finally made some long planned upgrades to my graphics card and monitor and while the text is still tiny, it's far easier to read than it was prior. It was almost unplayable before.
Finding Waldo is easier.
My eyes are old, they are not as sharp as they once was, please make the text & map icons bigger.
Very little
