In case anybody else runs into issues with text rendered in Agency FB being cut off like this: Replacing Agency FB in fonts.ini, fonts4k.ini and rich_fonts.ini in <Discovery install folder>/DATA/FONTS with the name of a font you've got installed in drive_c/windows/Fonts should fix this.

I'd currently recommend Agdasima, as it was made to be a fallback font for Agency FB. The style isn't quite the same, but it's fairly neutral. Rationale is another decent alternate font if you want something slightly different from Agency FB, but it does not have the exact same shape and size as Agency FB and thus won't fit quite right everywhere (at least not without further adjustments in the font .ini files).

I'm not sure exactly what it is about Agency FB that makes this happen yet; tried four different copies the font from various sources, five different versions of Wine and quite a few other tweaks with no luck. All of them get cut off in the exact same way.

Huge thank you.

On my 32‑bit prefix I didn’t have font issues, but the game wasn’t stable and I experienced frequent crashes.

I switched to GE‑Proton as a runner, which doesn’t support pure 32‑bit prefixes. With this I achieved perfect stability.

On my 64‑bit prefix I had the cut‑off font issue. I found a workaround using Arial font with additional tweaks in the font.ini. It was satisfactory, but not perfect.

With the font you shared, I only needed slight adjustments in font.ini to reduce the size of item names and HUD text, and now it seems perfect.

Interesting addition. Thanks. That makes Koshi's Ge Proton complete solution.

Man you are the legend, fixed my steam deck hauling and mining adventures. GE Proton 10-34, works like a charm. Thank you!
