Curse

before update (from my old bmp screenshot):

after update (bmp screenshot taken):

After update numbers are darker and icons of items are blurred!

1. I didnt change any of graphics options since a few months (didnt change today).
2. I did both screenshots as bmp (no compression)
3. I think also more blurred are numbers on hp/energy bars and numbers on arrows in attibute panel.
4. Rest of screen looks ok for me (at the moment)

Any more noticed this thing?

I thought maybe I'd just lost my mind. I kept looking at my inventory thinking that all of the icons looked "softer", but just decided that I was crazy.

I kind of like them like this.

To me, "to soft" is something different than "to blur". For me, somebody made icons' numbers harder to read (they are less readable now) and overall view of icons make me to find some cloth to clean monitor from fog.

I hope its bug and will be repaired.

Yeah, I think it's for lower end graphic cards. If you raise the texture quality to medium it's normal again.

To me they don't look blurrier. They seem clearer, in fact. Must be a graphics card thing.

This is with all settings on low with no AA. Putting it on high settings does not make it clearer and using AA makes everything a little fuzzy.

I'm using max texture quality since long time.

I'm using also "small" interface size. Before update all was good.

But yeah, I've experienced the same thing.

Hope it gets fixed soon. Its also effecting non-holiday items in my inventory.

They definitely don't look blurry to me at all. They just look softened.

It is affecting ALL my items.. I gave this example only because I had old screenshot to compare. Rest of my items are blurred too... :/

Oh no! My stack of ectos looks blurrer! They must be dissolving!

Don't worry, you are just the only person affected by this change, whatever it is.

I predict this thread will get locked in 5...4...3...2...1...

Hi,

I reported this to the programming team, and they're great about investigating concerns. Don't worry, we'll see what we can do!
