August Expansion Teaser Screenshot #2

Is this some kind of joke? Like is this seriously a joke? I don't wanna be staring at some old dude's butt when I'm at critical health ... Please let this be a troll UI ..
Just noticed, that not only is the life dude small and ugly, but he hides the bottom of the life globe, where it matters the most.

Would nipples in the center of Life and Mana suffice for those who miss the ladies?


No, since that's not the real issue. The problem is that these new globes look like they just have random people to the sides of them. The chained up ladies were a part of the globes themselves, they warped around them and looked aesthetically pleasing. They also fit the theme of the game much better, someone chained up to the globe is much more within the theme of a dark adventure than some statues you'd see in a fucking nobleman's mansion. I stand by my recommendation that they change these new globe dudes to, at the very least, be chained up to the orbs.

I prefer the old UI also the women on the hp and mana bar. I think they were fine, I'm not sure why you had to change the UI itself. Maybe you can make the HP globe the woman and the Mana globe the templar so both sides get what they want.

I also like the "$" button for the cash over this "Shop" button. New UI looked like it went backwards but I did like that you guys simplified the menus into one big button though.

Well I guess I know which UI change won't come through.

Either that or they would lean against 80% of the community which isn't a very smart idea considering this is a game that lives off the comunity.

Or they managed a way to find sponsors other than the gamers and are now obliged to do as they are told by them hence the ugly shop button and mainstream everything is metallic now UI look since big sponosrs just care about a lot of sales and not a good looking UI.




If they are smart they will rework this one to make it prettier and add an option to select UI.
People have been asking for it for a long time.
Oblivious
Don't like anything about the new UI, except maybe that the details look finer. I'd rather see that extra level of detail and compactness applied to the existing concept of the current UI.

The shop button looks horribly out of place. The old one looked to be of the same kind of material as the UI and the background behind it blended to a similar color around it to keep it from being in our faces as we quest/grind. The new button is this hokey, in-your-face distraction.

The wrinkly old men and beards don't theme well with an artsy UI either, and the way the characters are positioned next to the globes doesn't make any sense visually. I'm thinking more like a ripped warrior supporting the life globe (Atlas style) and a spell-castery female with her arms wrapping around the BR corner of the mana globe, as though she were containing its energies. The shackled women worked fine as well. It gave the vibe that this was an adult game, not one for children or people with hang-ups over depictions of adult topics such as slavery or nudity—things which are very appropriate to depict in medieval style fantasy worlds.

That looks absolutely terrible, this had better be optional.

I'm gonna be editing the content file and switching this out with the current version if it's not optional.

The menu button is fine btw, it's obviously needed as you add more features, but everything else fits the game perfectly and there was no reason to change them at all, I have no idea why anyone would think this was a good idea.


I agree.
