Simple question! Are quotation marks on cards like the Chargendas and Seal of the Crown obvious enough?
I say no and that they should be bigger or bolder or ______. Fill in the blank if you have any good ideas.

I think that if you are building a deck, you're going to read the complete text of a card before considering it. If you misread it, then you'll learn quickly that it is not what you expected at first.
So… yes I think they are enough, however it sort of supports your whole burden of knowledge debate.
Obvious enough for what?
For people to read cards correctly.
i. e. Chargendas
And finding out a card doesn't do what you think it does is not an ideal situation for accessibility.

But it's still your own fault for misreading it. I have read normal cards a little too quickly at times and have overlooked "House X only" before only to find out during a game that I've got an illegal deck. It's my own fault for not reading the card completely or too quickly.
Yeah, I'm having a really hard time getting behind the idea that the quotation marks on the character-agendas are not obvious enough. On all 6 of them, the quotation marks start after the words "with the text:" and end at the end of the card text. So it's not like it's hard to tell where it starts (right after the words "with the text") and it's not hard to tell where it stops (the end of the card's game text). I'm not sure how changing the font, size, or style of the quotation marks makes this any easier to see. It's a question of reading comprehension, not format.
The only character-agenda that there was really any excuse to mistake was Griff as he was spoiled. In the spoiler article, there was a huge line break before the Response, so it seemed like there was a natural break where the quote should have ended at that line break - and before the Response. But that was not what the card looked like when we actually pulled it out of the chapter pack. That line break was gone, and there is pretty much no mistaking that there is not - and should not - be a "close quote" before the Response (which even appears in the middle of a line of text!).
