				Graphics in the game are fine. Game runs smooth. However, almost all text is broken.

I've tried searching for solutions, but I haven't managed to find my specific issue anywhere.
The pause menu is also broken.

When first starting the game the initial menu is blocks. This can be fixed by maximizing the window.

				Hello, this is most probably graphical issue, as the text glyphs are broken.
You can try these solutions:

You can also post the log file, so we know the system and hw configuration.

Either change set force-opengl=false in config.ini or use --force-d3d in Steam launch options.

				I managed to fix it!
I was playing around with the Vram settings.
I changed it from high to all. Now I haven't had any issues.
Here is the log anyway if you're interested. I did have a random crash once, but it hasn't happened again.
