The game would have to selectively load higher resolution versions of all the images.

That implies all the images in the game would have to be redone by artists at higher resolution. Up-vote for DLC.

Keep in mind the entire UI is likely a reskin of DotNET, WPF or Windows Forms. It would look like accounting software or Aurora 4X without all those images. Older titles here likely had to struggle with DirectX or Win32 native even for simple 2D.

Given what's available now, imagine the headache the developer had to solve to get the images to combine in place, but not have the fonts blow outside the lines due to DPI changes.

I don't mind the small font, but the map gets also smaller and the Zoom has not enough levels to go more "into it".

Is there a possibilty to have more Zoom levels while keeping the GUI as it is at 100% - and I don't mind that the Map gets a little bit blurry then, I have that also when I run the game at more than 100% Resolution.
