New UI is ugly

Community General Discussion
1

It literally looks like a Mobile game Ad stole WoW footage and slapped their UI on it.

Being able to move bars is nice but aesthetic wise, this UI clashes so hard artistically with half the UI and the WoW world.

Give the option to turn the old UI on please. This is a Classic example of touching stuff that doesn’t need fixed and shoving it down your throat.

Edit ~

I didn’t want to move the old UI that’s the reason I didn’t use a UI addon.

If anything it made things worse.

  • I can’t change the size of the Bags/Menu or make it not grey
  • I can’t change Map size to make it not huge
  • I can’t change the ugly new art style
  • Edit mode gets stuck open if you open it in combat

Bag/Menu 20% bigger - /run MicroButtonAndBagsBar:SetScale(1.2)
Map 20% smaller - /run Minimap:SetScale(0.8)

I can’t change the Chat box size
I can’t remove the Gryphons to put my bars side by side
I can’t resize all the windows to be the same size all at once. This makes all the windows sizes look disproportionate. It actually gives me a head ache to read the text it’s so small. It seems there was no consideration on scaling when it came to anything past 1080p.

Liking this just for this part. There really should be options to stick with what we’re used to. Personally, I’m looking forward to the new UI, but I can totally understand some people wanting to stick with what they’re used to.

It’s pretty half baked. I’m just going to keep using my addons.

I completely disagree. It looks a lot cleaner

Honestly I’m not a fan of the new UI, but that is probably because the old UI I’ve been using since tbc :dracthyr_shrug:

It’s half backed.

People who used UI addons are still gonna use UI addons.

Seriously Open your Character menu > Talent Menu & look at the UI. It’s 3 different art styles it looks so bad.

We defiantly need a option to use the old UI.

Maybe. The new UI changes can pretty much do everything I do with bartender so I will probably save the memory by sticking with the Blizz UI now.

The only thing I think that the new UI cant do is move the bag button or the mini menu.

New UI is what you make it.

Meh 99% of the playerbase uses addons so I’m sure someone will develop around it for ease of function in the near future.

I disagree but not for any one reason in particular. I think it just makes more sense to update the rest of the UI over time rather than making everything a toggle.

The new HUD UI looks so much better than what we have now. It’s sleeker and more detailed and more modern feeling.

Don’t break what wasn’t broken. The old UI worked fine for 18 years.

People are still just gonna use UI addons. All this does is force people who didn’t use UI addons before to use them to get old UI back.

I don’t even know what this means. It doesn’t look any different than other customizable UIs that are addons in this game and have been for over a decade.

You could’ve asked this without the need for the angry post.

The new UI is almost exactly like bartender. I am not sure what this suggestion would have accomplished.

it didn’t though, that’s why everyone who played competitively rlwere required to use add-ons to get the job done.

They are, but I will be removing Elvui because it is now redundant to me.

I think the new UI is an improvement, and will be a cleaner experience for newer players which is a good thing.

Times change, or so they say.

Does the new UI allow you to hide or move the TalkingHeadFrame, or move the extra action bar/button frame?
