Hello everyone !!

So i made this to discuss a little bit and gather feedback about the font type and other menu/UI related text and graphics that are mostly aesthetic and non functional, thus this is pretty much all about taste.

I noticed when starting TW2 and before when i saw the logotype for the game title that it used pretty generic and common letters that had nothing to do with a fantasy or medieval setting.

This is obviously not a serious thing, just a little detail, but i felt like there was no need to simply make all the text and inventory look like any modern action game instead of using more decorated and artistic text/backgrounds.
Plus i think its very nice when in a game every detail is carefully made to look like its part of that specific game and universe, its somewhat more immersive and fitting.

While in TW2 it does look clean and its easy to read, there are other options as well, in fact the whole interface and inventory of TW1 could be read pretty well, besides being inherently better from a functional point of view.

In TW1 the backgrounds for the main menu and hero development screen were a little too excessively detailed and chaotic, but it doesnt mean its either that or how its in TW2.

So do you think TW3 should have more appropriate text/UI/backgrounds according to its fantasy/medieval setting or just not, like in TW2?

(functionality is not discussed here, a perfectly readeable and efficient inventory can be made with also nice fonts and decoration)
