I've got the PS3 version, and am playing it on a 56" rear-projection HDTV that can do up to 1080i, and the text is tiny and unreadable. As it is, I didn't get Mass Effect 2 for the PS3 due to this issue after trying that demo (and not finding anything online about a fix coming), but I've already pre-ordered Dragon Age 2 and am not amused that without the ability to make the text bigger, it's going to be un-playable. My TV is plenty big, has a great picture, and great resolution, any spoiled kids telling me to get a new TV are welcome to send me the money out of their massive allowances. Please tell me there is going to be a fix for this.

Also, what is it with the design decisions from everyone lately where you make the text color a different shade of the background color, therefore making the text much harder to read? :(

I have a small 36" Vizio LCD HD TV thats only 720p, and i dont have this problem.

It may have to do with your output setting being set to 1080 and the demo only seems to go 720 at most.



I love the demo, have seen the blood on off a couple time and some slight skipping in cutscenes, but i could care less about that.



Bring on March 8 even faster now please.

Bump. I have this issue on the 360 and see plenty of people with the same complaint, a Bioware response would be nice

Yeah, Agreed. It's practically unreadable on an SDTV, but as seen in this thread and speaking to a friend of mine with a decent HDTV, it's kinda bad even on some of them. I really don't get the rationale of this decision, as the text was great in DA: O / Awakenings. Slightly small in the codex, but still readable there, and sufficient everywhere else, most importantly, conversations. I can't even read what the heck I'm saying to people with this font change in the demo.

I really would love a response from Bioware for those of us with issues with this confirming whether or not the full version is going to be this way or not, as I may very well have to cancel my preorder if it's going to be like this. I literally, without the slightest hint of exaggeration, had to take an extra half hour to finish the demo (from trying to actually read conversation options and the skills while levelling up my party) and had a massive headache by the end of it. It's practically unplayable like this with such a story and reading-heavy game.

Edit: Forgot to mention, I'm playing the 360 version, but the problem is exactly the same.

I have a HDTV and although I can read the text I often have to get up from my couch and go closer to read it. It's annoying. Bioware, will the final game be the same? I preordered months ago so please answer.

I had the same problem. The ****-up is the scart, you nead to run the PS3 via a HDMI cabel. Went from tiny blurry text to really sharp quality!
