Wasteland 2 on PS4 from 2015 has an options setting for Text Size.
A basic feature that every game needs, especially those that are released for PC and console.
It's not hard. It's not optional.
Every UI in a console game that is shipped without the ability to make the screen text readable from 3 meters is not fit for purpose, and the responsible designers should be ashamed at having failed at their job.
