    Dialogue box not re-sizable.

    The dialogue box pictured below is not resizable. On windows machines users can pick very high resolutions to play the game in. I run mine in 1080p. I also play on my television since this game has wonderful controller support. This allows me to comfortably play this game from my living room couch. However, the ridiculously small size of the dialogue box makes reading cut-scenes a chore. It can not be selected and resized like other UI elements. This element should either scale with resolution or we should be allowed to change it's size. Thank you.

    Have you tried scaling the UI with CTRL-Home?

    Just noticed the UI scaling drop box in the configuration screen as well... has this not remedied it at all?

    Edit:
    bleh.. apparently when you apply it to all UI elements, it doesn't apply it to the NPC dialogues. Of course... that would be too easy. There is something else you could try though... may not like it too much. You can read the NPC dialogue from the Event log tab in your chat window, or you can add all NPC dialogue to any of your other chat windows. By default, the option to show normal dialogue is disabled I think in the main one, but it is enabled for the Event window.

    Go into Character Config, Log Window Settings (last one with the chat bubbles), then move down to click on the gray button under Log Filters for which chat window you want to add all NPC dialogue to expand the options. Move over to the Announcements tab. There will be two options for NPC Dialogue--one is for just their announcements (like when in a hest), the other is for their normal dialogues like when you click on them in town and such. Enabling that one will put all their dialogue in that chat window as well.

    Not a perfect fix by any means, but may be a work-around for the time being since you can control the text size and such for the chat logs.

    I play 1920x1200, don't have a problem with these conversation dialogs. In fact I sometimes play 2560x1440 and it's not a problem there, either.

    Wonderful for you I suppose, but when I sit 8 feet from my TV I do have a problem. This was also an issue on the ps4 beta 1 so I know they are aware of this problem when playing games on TVs.

    They should let you resize all UI elements of the game so that the player can benefit from it to the max.

    When you on the dialog mode, use your mouse and move over it and click on it - which by then you could do CTRL-HOME to zoom. This is for certain and I have done that.

    I am not sure if you can use gamepad, and what are the gamepad combination for zoom.
