Q:
Hello, writed about it here because, reporting this problem by (In-game Ticket) didnt pass .
Writing to support also did not help, they only sad ,, we have no control over how the game displays fonts. This is how the development team feels the fonts should work ….. "
In the game there are options for changing its interface size. When I choose other than normal I see hardly redable text in’’ Black Lion Trading Post " in tab " Trading Post, ".
Below photographs showing what I mean.

Personally, I feel that the Interface Size should not just be a slightly smaller, and less readable version with each smaller size selected, rather it should be a completely different design with fewer elements or streamlined features.
“Size” options should be: Full, Reduced, and Minimal
‘Full’ is what we use now, ‘Reduced’ would be a more streamlined interface with less graphics and empty space in the layout, and ‘Minimal’ would be a compact arrangement of elements with quick access to frequented listings and displaying of item information.
This trading post is simply the most clunky, poorly presented, poorly organized and poorly designed in-game store/auction house/trading post I’ve ever experienced in any game. Half of the search options don’t even work properly, and many items aren’t even listed in their own categories. When you can search for a specific category of an item, and by selecting that category you are shown results that actually exclude what you chose to search for…something is very, very wrong.
It is far from being professionally designed, let alone with the players’ needs in mind. My nephew even points out how crappy it is and asks why it isn’t like ‘this’…
Nephew: “Why can you only see the super low selling price for something? Why can’t you see all of the prices something is selling for when you go to sell something?”
Me: “To see all of the prices people are selling the item for you have to go to the ‘buy’ screen first and then come back to the ‘sell’ screen and just remember from the other screen what amount you should be selling it for.”
Nephew: "Wait, so if you go sell something, if you want to see that you should sell it for a dollar (silver) since that is what it’s worth and what tons of other people are selling it for, and not for a few pennies (copper) like some guy is selling them for, you need to pretend to go buy it first and hop back and forth?
Me: “Yep…”
Nephew: “Wow…that’s pretty dumb. Why not just have all of the buying prices and selling prices on the same screen? Or even the last 10 different prices so people know what the stuff is worth and what they should sell it for?”
Me: “…sigh… I love you, Jake.”
Yes, even a 10 year old can see how poorly it is implemented and can point out how it should logically and ideally function.
