V difficult to read the writing on the screen

Dam34

Hey Folks,

Brought Skyrim during the week and just starting to get into and looks great bar one thing that's driving me mad. Did anyone else find the writing on the screen very difficult to read?

It's not my eyes because I've no worries with any other game and even when I stand right up to the screen I'm finding it difficult to read.

Is there any setting for increase / changing the font??

Thanks

As in the Menu writing etc? Or just the Books/Letters/Journals you pick up around Skyrim?

Personally I fell I have to concentrate that extra bit when trying to read a Journal etc. But that's the writing styles etc. Part of the game and all that.

It bugs me a tad too. What resolution are you playing?

To be honest not sure of the Resolution I'm playing in.

It's basically all the writing on the screen i.e. from viewing my journal to having conversations.

Maybe it's just something I need to get used to as I've only been playing the game for 2/3hrs.

Just wondering was there some setting I could change to try and improve it or was it just me...

Possibly Change the Resolution and/or Up the Brightness/Contrast on your TV/Monitor?

Firstly, are you playing on PC, PS3 or 360?

Secondly, what cable are you using to connect to your TV/monitor?

If on console and using composite, it will look bad and be very hard to read the text.

Does your TV have component inputs? Red/Green/Blue

It'll look massively better through component and the cables are really cheap.
