It looks to me like you loaded the game under the wrong language font maybe?
An uninstall should get rid of the old application data files but maybe you should try uninstalling (again, yeah, that bites, I know...) and make sure those old app files are actually gone too, otherwise a fresh install will still use the old letters since they aren't 'true fonts', they're 'pictures of letters' if you get my meaning.
If that isn't the case, I have no idea...

the only other things I can think of is look around for where those pictures are stored in the game. you might be able to mod the letters back the way they are supposed to be. is anything else in the game having wrong fonts?

Fate only came in English, so that isn't the problem. This is Fate Original, as can be seen from the image. Multiple reinstalls is not going to clear the cache, which is what probably needs to be done. The exact location of the cache will depend on your operating system.

The newest versions of Fate do have multi-language support.

I have the same problem, but it only occurs when I download the media update for fate. Reinstalling fate fixes the problem for me, but I would like the media update. Yea its definitly not a foreign language. Somekind of programming code maybe? It's everywhere...the only thing that's in English text is the game title and the word "Loading". Even the hints on the loading screen are in that weird writing.

Yup - my sister and I are both running Fate on different computers, but after downloading the media update everything displays in foreign characters. Any fix for this yet?

Fate Low Bandwidth to Broadband Media Upgrade Version 1.21

make sure your fate is version 1.21 "low bandwidth"

if you install it from the cd then you don't need this upgrade.

i compared this upgrade with the one in my cd and the files are different but the names are identical.
