In a
blog post
talking about lessons learned from March's Beta weekend, Blizzard announced that
the in-game font of Diablo IV would change
. Just a week later, we got a first look at the new in-game font of Diablo IV
during the latest Developer Update live stream
!
Blizzard Announces Diablo IV In-Game Font Change Diablo IV Open Beta Retrospective Summary
The game's first iteration of a sans-serif in-game font had been one of the few community pain points because it didn't seem to fit the general dark theme of Blizzard's upcoming ARPG. This comparison shows the massive difference between Diablo IV's old sans-serif in-game font and the new serif version:
A comparison between Diablo IV's old in-game font (left) and new in-game font (right). It's important to note that the old image is based on in-game footage while the new low-quality image was shown during this week's developer livestream.
We have learned that Blizzard has introduced the first iteration for the sake of readability and accessibility. This decision, however, did not add to the incredible amount of immersion present in Diablo IV. In fact, the sans-serif, Arial-looking font felt out of place and very much not like other Diablo versions. As shown
in our first report about the font change
, this mostly stems from the fact that Exocet, the heavily stylized "Diablo" font, has been used excessively in earlier titles of the franchise.
What are your thoughts about Diablo IV's new in-game font? Does it look better compared to the old font? Are you in favor of a more readable font? Or would you want to go back to good old Exocet instead of having a custom serif font?
