  1. Great video! I was just fixing this yesterday. I was doing titan extreme on keyboard and mouse and it was TERRIBLE. The directional control you get with controller is great. I was worried about accessing all my skills but it worked perfectly. Enjoyed you diving deeper into the configuration settings.

  2. This was well timed, Brian thanks as always. With the Introduction of the 4k settings it made me realise I could be playing on 2k was still on Full HD, I use your controller guides so already familiar with the hud layout, but I couldnt find a way to scale the main menu when you press start? Have you ever found a way? Cos that thing explodes in size and isn't part of the hud layout options 🙁

  3. Great timing! I've been playing around with my settings and changing up my UI this week. I had no idea you could scale the dialogue window. I never right-clicked on it. I also had no idea the little inventory grid on the UI would show you when items are spiritbound. How did I never notice that? Learn something new every day. 😀

  4. I finally picked it up and started playing the free trial this weekend (what have I done?!).
    One thing I was seriously struggling with was the precise UI/HUD customization for controller and feeling overwhelmed with where to put all my spells and actions after getting to a decent level.
    This really helped out a bunch, even introduced me to some options I didn't know were changeable.
    Keep it up Brian, great stuff as always!

  5. This is great. I started playing a few months ago and have watched a lot of your videos. I just learned a few new things from this one. Thanks for all of the great content!

  6. How do you decrease the font size on the name plates? I have the correct screen resolution for my monitor (1920 x 1200) and I set the global UI scale at 60%. This made most of the UI elements a better (smaller) size, but I individually increased a few (like the text boxes) to 80% since they were a bit too small to read. But name plates are still too large, so much so that I had to turn all of them off (targeting only) except for the important NPC's (vendors, etc.) or it just became a jumbled mess in town. Under the name plates window, the font is set to regular (not large) – unfortunately there is no small font setting. I have searched through everything, but can't find a fix to this. I have seen quite a few screenshots/videos where the name plates are a reasonable size, so there must be a way to fix this. It would be strange if it can't be changed, since everything else is so customizable.
