That was hard to read, damn. I can read German quite well, but the font basically makes the capital letters a pure gamble to me. I guess this is a lesson to always listen to speaking cats lol.

Edit: Like "Der Vater hat's verboten". "Vater" is written more like "Bater" in this font

This kind of font is called Fraktur

Funny thing: My Steamname is Vulgaris and I use a Fraktur font to display it. Got alot of racist insults from germans, thinking it says Bulgaria.

Schwabacher is another blackletter typeface, like Fraktur.
