PS5 UI Scaling

[Desmo46]

Hi,
Since migrating to the PS5 version I have noticed several issues with the UI scaling which are preventing me from getting the appearance I desire.

1) With system UI set to 100% (at WQHD resolution), the system menus become very tiny so I use the "Enlarge system UI" feature which generally works well but it has a bug in that any in game text that appears (the yellow unselectable text that appears during fights or the end of fights in the middle of the screen) during fights for example, spreads across the screen and even off the screen entirely. On the PS4 using the same settings, the ingame/battle text would be much smaller and fit on to the screen.

2) The icons on the map are very small unless you use a higher overall scaling percentage like 150%. I don't want to use the higher % due to the next reason below.
Can you look at implementing a setting to adjust the scaling of the map text/UI elements individually from the overall system UI

3) If you set the system UI scaling to 150% or greater the size of character and NPC nameplates become huge and practically fill the screen in busy areas. Can you please add a setting to allow the size of these to be customised by the user.

4) If using the enlarge system UI setting, the game text displayed during the Shadowbringers initial game screen and character login screen are very large - I think this is linked to point 1 above but again it does not look correct; the text should be smaller than it is.

Many thanks,

What we need right now is the setting to manually edit 'enlarge system UI' to whatever size we like, its really annoying since the npc chat bubble to small and too large when you using the enlarge ui

UP, I hoped they really fix it on Endwalker, it was super hard to read the npc chat without use of the enlarge UI ( which is too big and ugly low res )

PS5 version is full of bugs it was never updated after beta. You're better off just using the ps4 version on ps5.
