Do you have fontism for any vidya?
capitalism working as intended, god bless america
>>727704004lol, what’s the point?do they really think their customers are gonna suck up and pay the new fees just for their fonts? I’m sure there are cheaper options, not even mentioning all the open source stuff you can find on the internet these days.
>>727704004who the fuck would ever pay that much for a font?
>>727704148This but unironically. If you actually paid some unwashed intern to make a new font, not only would YOUR company own it but you could even be the one to license it out to others. The reason shit like this even happens is because far too many lazy developers just pay people to rent assets and then cry when they have to keep paying later. Just make your own fucking shit and then you can use it as much as you want for free.
>>727704004Just use free fonts.
>>727704437>If you actually paid some unwashed intern to make a new fonthey quick question how much work do you think goes into making a typeface?
>>727704004>>727704263What's weird to me is.. surely fonts are one of the easiest things to copy-without-legally-plagiarizing? Like there are only so many ways to write the letters of the alphabet without going full outsider-art, what basis is there realistically for a lawsuit in most cases.
monotype imaging KKH ceo
>>727704004Why would anyone do that when there are fonts that are free?
Most people can't tell the difference between Arial (Microsoft's font) and Helvetica (the original).So yeah just commission yours, I'm sure Sega/Fatlus has enough money to pay some undergrad to make an alternative that's different enough to not result in a lawsuit.
>>727704859Sorry, I meant to say google it.You will not be surprised sir
>>727704707I'm probably saying something retarded but aren't fonts technically software?
>>727704707a font isn't exactly just a bunch of recurring images anon>>727704263the point is to limit the options and disrupt the competitionnow they have to scramble to find a new font provider (or make their own) messing up the timeline for their current milestones
>>727704148>>727704263>>727704304>>727704437>>727704626>>727704645>>727704707>727704859>>727704873>727704946>727704920>727704947Answer the FUCKING question do you or do you not have fontism for any vidya?!
>>727705059Magic Cards from Morrowind is usually my go to
>>727704263well they only need a 2.5% conversion rate to get out aheadbut at the same time changing to a legally distinct lookalike font isn't exactly hard
there are so many cc0 fonts available that I'm surprised people still pay for that shit.
>>727704645>paint every letter once in upper case>paint every letter once in lower case>paint every number once>punctuationThat's LITERALLY all it is.
>>727705839The average font costs about 2,300,000,000 to create and takes a team of over 100 people more than 2 years of constant work.
>>727706102Where did chatgpt take this "fact" from? Also if fontmaking is so expensive, then why are there so many free fonts?
>>727706362>>727704626the overwhelming majority of "free" fonts are actually only free for personal use and have a steep pricetag for professional and commercial use
>>727705307ding ding ding. supply and demand isn't real
>>727704304Designer fonts are even more expensive than that. It's a entire industry cratering mainly to wealthy brands.

>>727707012(serious question this is not jeopardy)
>>727705059HE LIKES FONTISM HE LIKES FONTISMsee nobody cares, go to /gd/
font licensing? like do you have to pay to use Aeral or Times New Roman? i dont get it.
Is that why Air Riders had a shitty default font look for its logo? Kirbybros does that mean we can go back to the 4kids font?
>use <system's default font>There, I just saved you a sneedillion dollars, no need to thank me.
>>727706102Justify this in any way. I could make one in a week by myself. You could as well. Anything else is delusional.
>>727704148Sure (((capitalism)))
>>727707920its not that simple. you are going to run into a lot of broken lines if you just throw it all on the user. the scipt is specifically made for a certain font so when they program it into the game you won't get any odd line breaks or text going outside the border, if things are done right.
>>727708253no parentheses required, it's already implicit in the term
>>727708138>I could make one in a week by myselfYou can *design* one in a week. Adjusting, optimizing metrics and polishing it so all possible letter combinations look good is an entirely different matter, nevermind the fact that on the Japanese side of things there are also two alphabets and six gorillions kanji unlike the English alphabet that only has mere 26 letters.
>>727704148Epic. Can't wait for the chinks to blatantly steal them and not reply to any jewish lawyers
>>727704004Unironically, I do. I am extremely particular about typeface selection and typeface design. I design my own fonts to suit the precise need for translation projects I work on. When it comes to RPGs and VNs where text is the main thing players engage with for the game's run length, you HAVE to be a control freak, and you HAVE to be in complete control of the presentation to make sure that your bad font choice suits the game, doesn't cause any fatigue to players, is clear and legible, and more.My biggest pet peeves are glyphs with descenders that don't sit properly on the baseline without an extremely good reason (g, y, p, q, etc) and you see it all the time where these letters are shifted up a bit, and they aren't altered to fit the x-height, making them jut out above everything else.The other one is x-height issues. Even after decades, I am still annoyed by the GBA Final Fantasy ports because their lowercase "a" glyphs have their upper deck 1 pixel above the x-height, and it looks awful.
America is the india of the west.
Is your favorite vidya affected?
>>727709637the ceo of that company is a jeet THOUGH
>>727706589m8 the textbook graph literally covers this case
>>727709637Funny how it all comes right back around, eh?
>>727708730even a basic latin typeface covers a whole lot more than 26 characters
>>727709491I also dislike when the colon is centered on the capital letter height.
>>727704148Is it really capitalism for government intervention to impose monopolies on fonts, infringing the free market?
wtf!!! how will nintendo afford this!+!!!!!
>>727709828that's what he said, dalit
>>727704004What the fuck?Aren't they just going to lose all customers?That level of price increase is not even remotely reasonable
>>727704263jewish lawyers
>>727709819what's the excuse of these billion dollar companies for not developing and owning their own fonts?
>>727708138I swear, it would actually kill most Americans if they tried thinking about anything from another person's perspective. Or tried thinking in general.
>>727704437Except making (QUALITY) japanese fonts is far more work because of the thousands of kanji that have to be made, you can't look at this through an EoP lens
Imagine paying for fonts. What the fuck is a font maker gonna do? Sue me with someone else's font?
>>727710047Yes. because said intervensions are forced by capitalistic entitites.
Its fake retards it's jeet nation bait
>>727710020I also find it unpardonable how this awful, puny 8 pixel font was used for the main script text in the DS Chrono trigger.Even if it would have cost a few extra A clicks for proceeding through the text windows, I think they should have just used the one from the SNES which you can read from halfway across the room on the smallest, crappiest TV screen.
>>727709491It's because the a is technically a serif while everything else isn't. It would be less of an issue if other serifs existed, but that's not an upper deck issue, it's a mixing issue. I'm surprised the bottom of the lowercase g's loop not landing on the same line as everything else isn't also a sticking point for you. It's noticeable in Magi.
>>727709819I'm sure Nintendo will try to buy the rights for the Mario Font if they had their hands on its development though
>>727706512It's trivially easy to find open source fonts. Still crazy that most common fonts like Arial are owned by Monotype.
>>727710621
lmao just get one of your many graphic artists to make some fonts for you, promote a guy and make some internal font division instead like a proper mega corporation
>>727708972There is a wealth of free fonts to use anon.
>>727705839true for latin based languages but asia makes their own life harder by using 6000+ moonrunes
>oh no billion dollar company has to pay a little bit more
>>727709819Oh nooo... not nintendo!
>>727704148It doesn't NEED a patch. It doesn't NEED balance fixes! Just git gud!
>>727710982Go away, Monotype
>>727710237>>727710982Why the fuck would you want them to divert 20 grand of their budget to fonts instead of literally any other aspect of development you fucking retards? In trying to attack muh corporation you're just defending another kike corpo's price gouging.Try to think for more than one second before you post you absolute niggers
>sacrifice your loyal customers for a bet that might not even workDo you think you have the upper hand here? Nintendo and Sega have enough money to make their own fonts.
>>727711191Yeah, companies like Nintendo have enough of a budget that they'll just hire some extra muscle for the graphic design department and start making their own font types in house, specially nintendo due to their "no one uses our shit" autism
>>727710709What the fuck they own that font? I thought microsoft or adobe did. So much editing software especially freeware shit has that as a default, are they going to have to remove it now because they won't be able to afford the license or are they going to have to make a crazy price increase too?
>>727704645Making fonts is easy it's not like they're fucking programming it in from scratch trying to figure out fucking bezier curves to render it properly.Takes like a couple hours for a normal person to make their own in one language.Multiple languages is another problem because the only people doing that are corporations and corporations make everything take 10x longer because no single person working an office job does more than 30 mins of work a day because the dude who got hired to manage everyone is doing 3 mins of work a day.
>>727704004>let's increase our costs by 100x!>surely we'll get rich and nobody will just leave
>>727711191>you're just defending another kike corpo's price gouging.That's /v/ in a nutshell these days lol.It's quite literally a battlefield between Indians pushing AI and jews trying to capitalism everyone to death.
>fonts>valuelolWhat? Are Mr. Times New Roman and Miss Helvetica going to send me a strongly worded letter?
>>727710642I guess it just depends what you value. There are countless good fonts and good approaches for pixel shit in this size category (12px).
>>727711529I've heard that actually enforcing licensing on smal time designers is an actual money making strat for them
>>727711191they spend 20grand a week on snacks in these placesits a fucking nothingburgershould have had the foresight that renting shit is bad in the long run
>>727704004>yearly licensing fee>"Sorry Fontworks but we already paid for it and you have already provided us with the font. We edited it and customized these two pixels per word so now it's no longer the same and we have licensed it ourselves and own this new font. :^)"Sadly nobody will have the balls to do that.
>>727711604I'm more worried how they don't get laughed out of court.>yes your honor I own that letter
>>727705013>keep subscription for current projects already deep into production with the font>end subscription the minute those productions are done Pretty easy. Will only cost Atlus like 75k

If you don't it's shittier than everywhere else. They literally make their homeless "dissapear" in major cities.
>>727712470Here's a question: if you draw your own font, what if it looks too close to one that's already licensed?
>>727712498Unlike murrican homes where you can literally punch a hole in a wall?
>>727712498There is no homeless outside of very rare brief exceptions of rural migrants trying to work in new expensive major citiesThey literally gave people in Inner Mongolia free houses, $0, pic related.Decent housing costs $50 to $100 USD a month and the median wage is like $1300 a month, that's less well less than 10% of the median incomeThey also have tons social safety nets that will give you free state-provided housing if you need it
>>727711529Anon, get fucking real. Fonts ARE a serious business. It's just one of those things people aren't aware of because it's a business that doesn't concern the general public, simply as that.

>>727713197How is that remotely comparable to writing each glyph once
>>727704707>>727704947>>727712191The shape of characters in a font are (surprisingly?) not copyrightable, but specific implementations of fonts are. You could trace every character and reimplement a font without legal worry but it's a lot of work getting kerning and shit right.
>>727712934>Fonts ARE a serious businessNo they are not. That's why they used to cost 300 dollars a year. Serious stuff doesn't cost a family night's out per year. Noone gives a shit and noone will ever do because it's an oversaturated market filled with free alternatives and the only people worth sueing cas easily whip their own v2 after the v1 did the heavy lifting on making it look good.
I like serif fonts, I hate not seeing serifs on anything, makes me feel like the west has fallen
>>727712818Yeah, just hope it doesn't rain so your house doesn't fall apart.Also just hope you don't get sick because while the American hospitals put you in debt the Chinese ones will just let you die out front if they know you don't have the money to pay the 150,000% markups.>>727712928No shit it's illegal to film actual homeless areas, that's the propaganda one. They're better at hiding their homeless by not allowing them in the city at all since it's just a big tourist trap. No ones going to where the factory worker on live leaks lives. Only the top 5% get to even live in cities. The middle class is literally living in cobbled together shanty towns hidden off in bum fuck nowhere. Most people just resign themselves working as a taxi driver or some shit for their entire life just living in their car.
>>727704004>>727704437Why does using a fucking FONT have to cost so much money?Its not a single use fucking cure for cancer, its a fucking FONT
>>727714106Because if someone makes something and you use it, then you pay them. It's literally that simple, dude.If you didn't, then no one would ever make fonts ever again because there'd be nothing in it for them.
>>727712659see >>727713726The shapes in a font can not be copyrighted. They CAN get a design patent, but that has a max length of 15 years and no one does it.

>>727714674>>727714815If you told shareholders "this will make next quarter profits skyrocket and the stock will go up, but the business will go bankrupt next year"They would do it, sell next quarter, and say fuck the business.
>>727714813really owning the libs by posting a child repeating propaganda
>>727714813Yeah and there's 300 million homeless people in china but they don't count people in rural areas which is where they send all their homeless then just call them rural migrants lol.

>>727715183They will probably pay once to avoid the hassle, tell them to fuck off and do exactly that. Specially since there is a good chance they won't even be in the business soon if they are trying to outjew people like this.
>Trying to paint everyone who is anti-jew as chinese.Capitalism would be fine if there were laws in place to prevent shit like pic related from happening.
>>727715183You're thinking of Latin fonts.Japanese fonts are not that easy to change, for obvious reasons.
>>727715437If you look at any major publicly traded company they tend to all have the same major shareholders, notably Vanguard and BlackrockAnd shareholders control these companiesSo basically, all these major companies aren't really "competing" because they're owned by the same shareholdersWhy would Blackrock and Vanguard want to "compete" against themselves?The only one they're "competing" against is dumbfuck capitalist consumer slaves to drain them of every cent they have

>>727715873Instead of you know, racking up the price of a fucking font by 100 times over?...thats some real kike behaviour?
>>727715873I'm pretty sure the one raising rheir not even close to essential product's price by 60x out of nowhere is the nigger jew.
>>727715873That pic is how capitalists think when other people make thingsTrump says he "built" the ballroom.Did Trump build the ballroom?No, of course not, workers built the ballroom. But if you hear a capitalist speak, they will often say stuff like this
>>727715956x58 is not tripling.
>>727715873Do you think the original creators paid God for changing up his font? Turnabout is fair play, it's only right to change up their font in response.
>>727705839>Thats all!you are one dumb motherfucker.
>>727716217He's right though, do you have a counter argument?
>>727710709japanese open source fonts that look good are a rarity, especially some of the crazy looking ones that get used in some games
>>727716043You hate capitalism, but fail to realize communism is also another form of kikery.
The problem with font licensing is really the Japanese character set. Japanese developers have already been using free fonts for games for other languages. But for Japanese, Chinese, and Korean, where thousands of characters need to be made, expensive costs for fonts have been normalized. Incidentally, Chinese font foundries have been slowly building in popularity. Maybe we'll see Japanese games adopt them.
>>727704004luckily font ownership and payment is unenforceable and creating your own font is trivially easy and can resemble any other existing font to any degree without causing you any legal trouble. 380 dollars lost, not 20,500 gained.
>>727715648Monotype is owned by a private equity company, so it's not completely the same.
>>727716043Is that why every communist society names the ideology after themselves and pretends they created the system while worshiping them as a god and pretending they literally created the land and gifted it to everyone?This fat chinese man who looks like winnie the poo is actually a god guys be nice to him or I'll kill you!!!
>>727704263thats kinda the point, jp companies used paid options out of inertia from even before the NES days because open source fonts for japanese either werent a thing or were both obscure and dogshitthese days finding on is 5 seconds of googling away, but jp companies still used paid options as a sort of favor for being there since ancient times at affordable ratesnow they have no reason to and westoids burned yet another bridge because a pajeet CEO wanted more money
>>727716342seems like it would be a good idea, just have the creators of the ones you like make a few dozen kana/hiragana in the same style
>>727714370"social safety net" refers to the ones they put in slave driving factories to "save" overworked wagies from leaping inside of the workplace
>>727716043Only the most deranged Marxist shitbrain could possibly think when Trump said “I built the ballroom” he was implying in any way that he literally built it or was trying to take credit in that way. That’s not capitalism it’s just basic communication and everyone with triple digit IQ understands it’s closer to saying “I put a lot of time and effort into making sure this task got done, I’m not even the most important or essential but I was an integral piece and I feel satisfaction at a job well done.” I guess that’s something you won’t ever experience.You motherfuckers are insufferable.
>>727716271>HES RIGHT!He's so right he forgot to mention all of the other shit that goes into it.SUCH AS!>Font Engineering.>Testing and Iteration.>Legal Framework>Licensing.There is so much more shit to go into, the legal aspect of it alone is a whole fucking hassle, you have to make sure your type font does not encroach onto another type font's licensing, to similar etc.He listed the bare basics if a dipshit from his home was doing it, but none of the business model, what the font face is used for and the legal licensing for it is for, the royalties, NOTHING!.So you wanted my counter argument, there it is, you both are stupid faggots who have never worked in the industry a day in your lives and now, as promised in another thread, MORE SHITTY GAMES COMING YOUR WAY! I'm going to purposefully make sure typeface is now comic sans.Keep being dumb know it all's /v/, I start a new game project next week and I get to determine how much gets turned into paid DLC that you can gobble up.
>>727716382It's not unenforceable. The shapes are uncopyrightable, but font licensing is based on the copyright of the font program.For example: if Nintendo uses a Fontworks font in a logo, they don't need to pay for it. But to use the font in a game, they need to embed the font program into it. Technically, the font stored in the game is just a rendered bitmap and some measurement data in most cases, but the status quo is that this is part of the font program and covered by the copyright.
>>727716461communists are explicitly atheist. that's why the US suddenly became devoted christians after WW2, just to be as not communist as possible. you're the one who believes in god bullshit. you seem like a stupid person in general.
>>727712934>he doesn't know about AI font mutators that can churn out 100 legally distinct but close-enough iterations of a font in less than a minuteThe time of the font owner is over.
>>727716504The problem is kanji. Even building them automatically by drawing the radicals as few times as possible, it's still a massive amount of work. There are LOTS of good, free Japanese fonts - they just don't cover any kanji, because who the fuck would do all that for free? Nobody does.
>>727715996>>727716007Come the fuck on, I said "disregarding the absolute kikery in question" for a reason. You bought a right to use something someone else made for a period of time, then changed it a little and now claim that it's akshually your own property you totally made yourself? That's bullshit.
>>727716670Interesting technicality. I think that this means that the fonts are, in fact, unable to be enforced legally, but that doesn't matter for this specific instance. Luckily the code for it isn't hard to replace and programming data is also equally unenforceable. So, you are right, but it still isn't truly an issue so long as they have a couple people who know how it works and can instruct some devs to fix it. Probably a few thousand USD over a few weeks to create a system they can use perpetually.
>>727716665>There is so much more shit to go into, the legal aspect of it alone is a whole fucking hassleI'm not sure how you're so retarded, but I licensed software with the click of 1 button by copy/pasting the GPL license into the repoLicensing is literally just selecting from any of the pre-made licenses you want like MIT or BSD and copy/pasting it.A font is really not complicated to make, stop making shit up.
>>727716342How many kanji can they realistically need? 60% of the Jouyou are effectively never used already, and half the remainder can be just rendered in kana. I'm sure they can get by with a 600 character set which is not that much considering the language and how there are languages using latin characters with a million tildes and what have you which can easily reach into the hundreds.Talking out of my ass ofc.
>>727716851The hilarious irony in this comment is that this is how Monotype got started, the founders took a bunch of font faces developed for analogue type from the type foundry they used to work for and digitzed them and sold them.
>>727716689All my favorite Chinese communists and historical figures fly around on swords actually and cause you said that they're gonna shoot kamehamehas at you while they 3d print a wife, home, and fulfilling lifestyle for me with their communist vision(tm). They're not gods and this isn't propaganda though it really happens if you believe in the communist vision hard enough.
>>727716271He’s not, consider scaling for one. The fact your font looks the same at 2160p in Chrome on Linux as at 720p in Firefox on Windows isn’t something that just happens in the background.
>>727716851>then changed it a little and now claim that it's akshually your own property you totally made yourself?That's literally what the 20k custom font is thoughbeiter desu
>>727716937>Licensing is one click.HOLY SHIT ILL BE SURE TO LET LEGAL KNOW THAT MONDAY! They will be so thrilled that some random faggot online knew more then them, I bet they will jump for joy at how much of a genius you are!You just saved the company!
>>727716689US was always full of devout Christians. Mormons and the Amish existed way before Marx and Engels wrote their shitpost.
>>727716937Shitty fonts that only look good under certain circumstances are not complicated to make. The whole point of a font is to maintain the look across essentially every possible display and printer, which is way more work than you think.
>>727704004At this point they could hire someone for making fonts
>>727717074You are Dunning Kruger to the max broDunning Kruger idiots like you running corporations are why you have such insanely inefficient bloated, expensive, and wasteful practices.Yes, quite literally, licensing is just selecting from a set of premade licenses you want that suit your needs.It's clear you've never seen a software project in your entire life.
>>727716829aren't all kanji just chinese loan characters? That's why I was saying get the already Chinese font makers to make a tiny amount of extra jap characters instead of the other way around and make thousands of them.
>>727717074>This but unironicallyOffice work is literally adult daycare where it's always better to give off the idea that you're working hard and are knowledgeable than actually working hard and being knowledgeable.If they let you know it was this easy you wouldn't be paying them 150k a year to sit around and do nothing.
>>727717015brown/10, sorry your attempts at communism ended in disaster, but so did all your other societies
>>727717047>save as svg instead of pngwow so hard very wow
>>727704004Should have stuck with the kino DynaComware fonts.
>>727717317You guys still seethe about Japan raping your peasant country 100 years ago.
>>727717185>Shitty fonts that only look good under certain circumstancesI hate this. Browsing 1001fonts is basically equal to dumpster diving expect all the good shit was already taken by some other hobo.
>>727704148Thank you American Elite Human capital!
>>727717075nope. the country was built by freemasons to begin with. providence is not the christian god, that's just what christians told everyone after they took over. washington himself did not attend church except to humor his new wife. prior to WW2, americans were just normal christians who understood what separation of church and state was about, not fundie retards who forced god into the pledge of allegiance.
>>727716342They just need to make a font for the radicals, which there are not THAT many of, and combine them into kanji, you don't need to individually design every single kanji. More work than a Latin font sure, but not that difficult in general.
>>727717675Of course
>>727717317Mao himself descended from the heavenly mountain and hit me with the Communist Vision(tm) and they made me 100% Yue Chinese just like Xian Xena. If you keep saying mean things like that to me he'll make you disappear just like all those filthy Uyghur Chinese.....
>>727717556you're the one who's seething about the chinese being better than you
How do we solve the america problem?
>>727716689Every colony had a statement of faith in their articlesAfter 1776, 11 of 13 required Protestant oaths of affirmation of faith for any public office. The only reason Christianity wasn’t more explicit in the Constitution is every single one of the founders considered it such an obvious requirement of the population it didn’t need to be said. In the words of John Adams, “A people without Christian morals would break the strongest cords of any Constitution as a whale swimming through a net.” Which explains why everything is going to shit. Also>the fucking Pilgrims
>>727717805Japan is better by virtue of Japanese not sounding like a guy talking while giving head.
>>7277115742nd looks great if it's for a fantasy game
>>727717675I for one love importing people into my country that share none of my morals or values. I hope one day can finally import enough Muslims and Indians that women become property again.
>>727717961First step is to leave the American website.
>>727717685I imagine some would need individual fine tuning that would bloat the number of radicals to have versions of them. Things like 響. Maybe one radical that looks fine in a vacuum simply looks off.
Nintendo not owning the fonts of their own franchises and having to pay for them is pure karma. Even more karma is paying 20k for a product that used to cost 300 bucks.
>>727717971doesn't change what i said. nobody is denying that americans were christian. but if you want to quote articles or the constitution, the obvious one would be the 1st amendment which guarantees the right to not be christian. go on, tell us how the 1st amendment is responsible for turning america to shit now that it's inconvenient to your narrative.
>>727718563>implying N will payLol.
>>727718563anon, basically all except maybe square crapcom and sega because they are retarded, will just move to any of the near identical open source versions that already exist
>>727716043>>727715873Go back to lebbit bitch
Who knew that font discussion could be so nuanced?
>>7277238584chan is where you come to listen to people who have opinions on things they don't know anything about.
>>727724154I know things. Like how a font isn't worth 20k.
>>727709819>Jewtendo got outjewed by the the TRUE Jews.LMAO, serves them right!
Nintendo must be feeling smart after switching to Morisawa for the Switch UI. They'll have to rely on them more, along with DynaComware. Fuck Monokike.
>>727724353>putin widewalking music
>>727705059>Answer the FUCKING question do you or do you not have fontism for any vidya?!Fuck off, we're discussing the kikery in the OP image. If you didn't want us discussing it, you should have used a different image.
>>727710843>asia makes their own life harder by using 6000+ moonrunesKorea was smart to create a new writing system to leave the Chinese moonrune hell behind.
>>727717675>american owned
>>727726073that change also killed gook culture and now they are just aliexpress trannyfornians
>>727717675every time
>>727707110A portmanteau of "font autism"This should be self-explanatory
>>727704626every game should use jokerman
>>727705013That just sounds like an extremely fast way of getting your company and its leadership blacklisted by literally everyone.
>>727704004https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHSNZK4Je-Y
>>727705839well yeah truethough there is some ergonomics that goes into it to make it easier to read fast and to differentiate between small L and big i and o and 0 and how much space should each character take. its kinda similar to how tall a stair should be and how fast it can curve. once you get into monospaced fonts and programming you will find a whole can of autism worms very similar to audiophile mania
>>727717378>cpu has to run floating point calculations for every character on screen
>>727704148US butthurts are replying en masse lmao.Free market does this.
>>727724353not much longer till every big japanese company is owned by the TRUE ones as you put it
You can just AI generate a font now.
>>727732992These companies are Japanese and AI definitely still fucks up kanji
>>727711613Every company ever outsources some part of their workload because having every company do everything badly is less efficient than having specialist companies you rent specialized and trained resources from at a cheaper costGet a real job you retard
>>727704263i feel like japs get particularly fucked by this and have less font options because of their thousands of unique characters.not like us who can make a basic custom font with alphabet, numbers and some punctuation for a in less than a day.
>>727736663A gorillion of open source options already exist anon, plenty of which are already used by both indies and some AAAs,.
>>727716271Kerning, hinting, weight, spacing, etc. There's actually a surprising amount of work that goes into making something that doesn't look like utter dogshit the moment it's used at any other size. Hinting, for instance, subtly changes the shape and width of the glyphs so that their lines align with the pixels, to prevent subpixel misalignment, which causes blurry-looking fonts. Certain letters will be spaced differently from others based on their "visual space", not just a rectangular bounding box. And so on and so forth.It might've been less a problem for games on small screens or designed for one size at one resolution, but today, with variable resolutions, UI scaling, etc., it's a surprisingly in-depth process. No surprise the dunning-krueger anons think it's a single-day cakewalk, though.
