    This not being an option has always baffled me.

    You can increase and decrease the sizes of the buff/debuff bars for yourself and enemies and menu screens in the HUD menu, the chat box's text in Character Config, but no where can you size up the CUTSCENE dialogue????

    Why not? I blame tiny Japanese homes.

    To allow for any kind of font size adjustments it would need to be a pixel based scaling which will affect quality, otherwise SE would have to proof read every dialogue in the entire game to make sure nothing is being cut off for various sizes. Huge headache.
    Well, if that's the issue with it, why not let us enlarge the bubbles themselves as we do menus in the HUD?

    That's actually what I meant when I said it would need to be a SCALING adjustment rather than an actual font size change :P

    yeah I get that
    so just let us adjust the size of the entire bubble, problem solved

    Clearly aesthetics aren't a problem since like this i have to have the chatbox AND bubble on-screen to read the text in the events tab

    It would also be nice if we could make the chat text larger then just 20. And make the map text bigger. And the NPC bubbles for those random NPCs that have stuff to say but you can't actually talk to them.

    Another thing I forgot to bring up in the OP and this is a MAJOR issue for me
    Now while we can make item/spell descriptions bigger, I find the marketplace next to impossible to read, especially the searchbox.
    Considering we can't just link item names directly to the search box we have to type all sorts of items in it manually, many of these items are words that mean little to nothing to me and I can't even spell right, maybe it's because English isn't my first language(tho I am bilingual) maybe I'm just dumb, either way I can never see just what I'm typing in there, at all.

    I find the market exceptionally difficult to browse and search because of this
    the search box is microscopic to me

    I'm all for being able to scale up the bubble in size, and I would also like to see something to make the duty overlay readable in sunny zones.

    I do hope SE do something, I wouldn't quit the game if they don't far from it but I did quit Aion because the chat box was too difficult to read, not only was the text small but you couldn't even make it so that the background isn't overly transparent and the developers refused to change that.
    Thank god FF14's chat box is at least very nice and as it should be.

    Oh I also forgot another thing
    it would be VERY nice if we could have an option to have all our FC mate's names appear in a different color in the world, kind of like friends show up in Orange.
    I have a very hard time reading people's names but if I see an orange name I get closeer to the monitor and take my time to see who it is.
    It would be a godsent if we had this for FC too, TERA had it for its guilds.

    After a year of playing this wonderful game I just learned that there is a compare prices button thanks to my FC.
    The text next to the button is TINY and gray on a gray background and it always looked like a decorative line to me for the window.

    I'm a little offended at this point since SE seems to go out of their way to make life more difficult in the game for visually impaired users
