Simple Request: Increase Font Size Mass Effect Andromeda on Xbox One

Hi there,

I'm playing Mass Effect Andromeda on XBOX One on a 55 inch HDTV. I'm finding the font size ridiculously small to read. I'm sure i'm not the only one experiencing this. I'm by no means an "old" guy and have fairly excellent to average vision. I'm positioned about 7 to 8 feet away from a TV, the average length of TV to couch distance in most homes.

In the past, I've always played Mass Effect on the PC, so font size has never been an issue. I bought Andromeda this time around to enjoy it on a bigger HD screen, as I spend all day in front of a computer already and rather not be behind a desk if I don't have to be.

This is a message to any product managers, developers, account executives that might be monitoring these forums: please increase the font size!

I mean, I'm not trying to sound condescending, but how does something like this get by quality control testing? It doesn't take a genius or someone with very poor vision to realize that it's almost impossible to read the text comfortably without squinting or moving closer within 5 to 6 feet of a TV screen. Take a random group of individuals off the street, place them in a home style setting, and I bet one of four of them would have something to say about the display size. Implementing something like this into the quality control process shouldn't be costly or rocket science.

Anyway, the intent of this post is not to bash the current product and the great effort already put into developing the game. The purpose of this post is to spur some immediate change so we can see some quick and timely improvements that can benefit the community as a whole. I'm sure most people don't want to wait for over half a year for a patch to be able to play the game comfortably. More happy customers equals more sales equals more happy execs. Simple math.

Good day to you all,
