There seems to be a general idea out there that states that serfied fonts are easier to read when it's a lot of text. Reason is said to be that we'll form words easier and read them, instead of reading the text letter by letter.
At the same time some suggest that readability is better for sans-serifs when the text is shorter and/or in less than ideal situations like i.e. low resolution, dark setting, etc.
Questions:
1. Do you guys have any idea what's true and what's not, and could you point me into the right direction, to some sites, articles, research and science about this very specific issue?
2. Even more pressing: What should we use for our (yours as well) CCG? Please check it out at http://www.bgdf.com/node/659 and compare that to Gary Simpsons original >> http://www.bgdf.com/node/66 Keep in mind these cards will be playable both online as well as IRL.
Personally I lean towards Garys solution, but it would be nice with some input from you.
Thanks for all the great input! Interesting to hear stuff we didn't take into account - as always you guys have delivered useful insights, and it's a pleasure being here.
We'll soon release the original template file, think it will give people the opportunity to play around, not that it would automagically fix things, but might still generate interesting ideas.
