Please allow more and larger UI scaling options

I really don't see any reason why this couldn't be available.

- Realistically, though, how many players are playing on a 4k monitor? I mean, I know a chunk of the "hardcore" people with lots of money do, but I imagine the average player doesn't, which is why it's probably not been much of an issue for SE.

It doesn't even have to be a 4K monitor. I'm on a 40'' tv. It still sucks.

Don't have to have a 4k monitor for 4k resolutions. Nvidia has DSR, and AMD is is coming out with their own solution. Square has to stay on top of advancing technologies.

Unfortunately, DSR with FFXIV (at least for me) is kinda a bust as it misaligns the mouse cursor to the buttons/clickables. The higher the resolution, the alignment gets worse. Certainly made the game look a lot better (4k was real nice on a 42") but it put me about 1/2 inch off to the right to where I needed to click the button to close windows and such. Never mind the tax it has on the graphics card itself. Plus, like the OP, the UI scales to the 4K and at max %, it's not big enough to read text reasonably and somewhat blurry (I feel at least).

If they could get the UI so that it can have it's own separate resolution, it's possible that might work out.

There are also a large number of gamers who play games on TVs. Sales of 4K TVs are zooming upwards every year. My screenshot was taken from the TV I play this game on, I don't use a monitor. You don't need a lot of money to buy into 4K right now, there are 4K computer monitors and 4K TVs already selling in the ~$400 price range.

I'm kind of hoping to get a community rep/dev response on this issue as it's definitely a QoL type of thing and while I admit I'm one of the early adopters of 4K, within 1-2 years you're going to see a LOT of people with 4K TVs or monitors. And they'll all get to enjoy microscopic UIs unless the devs address the UI scaling in this game.

I want to play this game in 4K full-time but I still have to drop to 1080p for raiding because being able to see the UI is rather important there.

have the same problem.. 4k resolution and so small UI <.<
