Remember when every content creator said the new UI is AMAZING

Do you realize how crazy you sound dude?
“oh its MAJOR changes now? I thought it was MINOR!”
Get off the forums bruh, go for a walk.

Servers have had maintenance every day at 11am EST for 1 hr minimum. So not only does everyone here disagree with you, blizzard disagrees with you.

There’s other, much more pressing, issues that they are fixing. Yesterday entering WG crashed your game, so hopefully todays maintenance fixed that.

@Chantilus-bonechewer

A texture change and moving some things some places but not all places is not majorly improving your gaming experience. Take a screenshot of your game in combat, to show us all the improvements aren’t major at all. Merely a headache for many, hence these threads, and doesn’t effect people who don’t use addons.

I was able to get rid of 4-5 addons adjusting my UI thanks to this, that’s pretty major.

Sorry for showing there’s no reason to be here to annoy people having legitimate issues. This UI was sold to us under false premises. If that doesn’t affect you, that’s awesome. You don’t have to fail at telling people with legitimate issues, that their issues aren’t legitimate.

[Toek-illidan]

Like I said earlier. The new UI still does everything the old UI did, plus more.
Breath buddy…breath

You just said it was a minor change. Before that you said it was a major change. Before that you said it was a minor change.

So it’s obvious you’re trolling at this point.

[Shadybolt-thrall]

You are a supremely strange troll
Considering you already replied to me earlier when I pointed out you are fundamentally wrong, to which you responded to me with an insulting retort

Why would you reply to me again as if I was agreeing with you, when furthermore I would also point out I said “journalists”, not “clickbaiters” (similar to how your thread is a clickbait-troll thread)?

You are a supremely weird troll

[Onikaroshi-mankrik]

For the 100th time, the change is major, the bugs are minor and not worth delaying over.

@Chantilus-bonechewer

what are the many ways it’s better?

1. Resize elements
2. Move elements
3. More toolbars

What else do you need?

[Mercelída-proudmoore (Mercelída)]

I’m fine with the new ui

[Tyrz-trollbane]

Personally, I like the UI. Im going to try to use it over Elvui for this expansion. Couple of issues or enhancements that should be easy fixes though. The Social icon needs separated from teh chat box or the chat box needs to be able to be resized. The minimap definitely needs to be able to be resized. Also it looks like they didnt make the option for the all in one bag for the bank, which feels like a miss.

[Chantilus-bonechewer]

@Iridium-earthen-ring

@Chantilus-bonechewer

what are the “many” ways it’s better?

1. Resize elements
2. Move elements
3. More toolbars

What else do you need?

• You can’t resize anything compared to old UI. so minus 1.
• You can’t move things anywhere, only where blizz allows.
• more toolbars

so there are 2 improvements you’re saying?
People are coming in here saying the new UI is AMAZING, there are “many” “major” changes.
There are sort of 2 improvements.

So not worth the hassle and a great start to a no hype xpac.

also:
-can’t move the system bar?
-System bar greyed out?
Obvious backwards change.

[Wrexxion-zuljin]

the content creators are doing the same crap they di before Shadowfail-Lands launched. Being so joyous about the changes etc etc.

[Zootzoot-kaelthas (Zootzoot)]

I agree but they do need to add the option to resize and move everything including the Micro Menu, Bags and XP Bar. I’d also love more Font options across the board.

One thing I was bummed wasn’t included was a way to customize Nameplates. I love Plater but Blizz removed the ability for addons to change friendly plates in Dungeons and Raids and the stock settings are terribad. I’d love to change the Font and use Class Colors for friendly’s when Plater is disabled.

[Chantilus-bonechewer]

Yup, everyone gotta pretend AAA Blizz is doing really well, you should like their stuff! Give me clicks! Look how awesome everything is!

Those vids didn’t age well, huh

They aged perfectly. The new UI is great. What’s your beef with it?

The real problem with the UI is that some humans are slaves to their instincts and confuse emotion for logic.

“We are hardwired to resist change. Part of the brain—the amygdala—interprets change as a threat and releases the hormones for fear, fight, or flight. Your body is actually protecting you from change.”

Not applicable.
Yes, humans are adverse to change as a survival instinct.
However, as per this discussion, and the multitude of other threads, the UI changes are not AMAZING. We wish they would be amazing. This was sold as a main xpac feature on DF reveal. We wish there was more change than there is. Instead, we have bugs, graphical errors, limited new features, devolved UI elements to greyscale, etc.
So you have a very disingenuous statement here.

Also, I’d argue modern society that most of you are growing up in emphasizes ignoring your instincts. You know a product is bad, but are pushed to consume it because you, as a human with social needs, must fit in somewhere. That’s one example.
Suppressing instincts in modern times is the biggest problem there is. But not applicable to why the ui changes are not AMAZING.
If anything, dropping the human condition to be empathetic has exasperated the issue, as seen by many people coming in here just to troll folks with legitimate concerns.

[Barakwa-area-52]

Mine is currently emulating my ElvUI build as the addon doesn’t work currently for me.

At least I have that ability to get it to function. I did mention in several bug reports during the beta that resizing needed to happen, it’s unfortunate that that never seemed to come through though, especially with the Bag/Menu bar.

[Raddekk-illidan]

New UI is fine. The problem is you.

You sound like a braying donkey.

What would have made it amazing, for you? “Amazing” is, obviously, subjective.

Amazing doesn’t necessarily mean bug free. Which changes do you feel are missing?

@Chantilus-bonechewer

So you have a very disingenuous statement here.

I am totally sincere about what I wrote and believe it currently, so your accusation of being disingenuous was an erroneous assumption on your part.

Nobody is advocating that we should be abandoning our instincts wholesale. It should be clear that the point is about how a fear of change will cause people to attempt to rationalize their distaste for a new thing. Surely you see the amount of hyperbole and hand-wringing over this new UI? Once people have calmed down emotionally, we will all look back on this moment with a smile.
