I’ll mess around with the new default stuff but probably return to elvui. It’s just such a good ui that lets me do literally anything
I’ll probably get rid of Elvui, which is a big change. Probably keeping all the others.
I have 
In comparison to what we have now? Leaps and bounds better since we have pretty much nothing right now lol.
“Good enough” depends on what you desire. Let’s look at a UI like AzeriteUI

Will you be able to get something that looks like that in Dragonflight from the stock UI? Nope 
so if that’s the kind of stuff you like then it won’t be “good enough”.
I’ll be sticking with my UI addons for the foreseeable future.
ALSO, UI addons are more than just cosmetic addons. Anyone using an addon because it gives them a button to do something that isn’t part of the stock UI likely won’t be switching either because they’ll lose that functionality.
It doesn’t, do you care at all about what font your UI uses? What about how big that font is? What about color? What about all those choices but have them different for different windows? What about the position of the font?
The changes to the UI are great but if you’re an Elvui feature junkie it’s not going to be enough for you.

I have to play it first to find out. Its taken too long for Blizzard to create a move it all UI
ELVui is on of the only add-ons I use anymore, I would love it if I can get rid of all my addons. I have not played but from the looks of it, it looks awesome.
Maybe that’s fine for open-world questing but I don’t know how you possibly get a tactical assessment of a 15 mob pull with 5 different types of mobs and making sure none of them get a interruptible or “uninterruptible” cast off (AKA Gambit Murlocs) while also managing your own buff up-time and CDs and rotation/resources while trying not to die.
That UI has a ton of stuff missing and to get an assessment of health values and CDs you have to look in the bottom left corner then shoot your eyes all the way up to the top right which is somehow even worse than Blizzard’s UI.
I’m glad that Blizzard isn’t taking your advice on UI.
From a tactical/functional point of view or high-end M+ point of view, Blizzard stock UI has improved substantially. For most players who play end-game content, the new changes are definitely a step in “bridging the gap” and resolving what many folks like Asmongold have rightly pointed out, how there’s a rift between a new player with stock UI hitting cap and trying to break into the “actual” end-game.
And that’s where WeakAuras comes in
Me too, but this was just an example
I don’t do any of that junk, different strokes different folks

I don’t use currently UI addons. I tried ELVUI on two separate occasions and hated it and went back to the default UI which I like best. So, I can’t wait to see what the new UI will look like.
He’s a “character” if we’re being generous, but his argument has logic to it.
There is a gap that exists between the two video games “Leveling WoW / Casual WoW” and “Endgame WoW” and while many of us know how to cross that gap, many other players can’t. The default tools for playing "Endgame WoW’ were very weak and these UI changes help level the playing field to a degree.

What stops them? What’s the difference between someone from Vanilla/BC/Wrath getting to endgame and someone today?
The only difference I can imagine is a desire for speed. I learned what I know from just playing and watching other people play and reading threads online.
I’ll probably ditch the action bar addons, but I don’t see much else changing. (Unless they get around to a macro UI update as well.)
A good chunk of my characters use the default bars anyhow as I’m too lazy to set up dominos on characters I don’t play that often, and I don’t mess much with the default functionality of the action bar paging when I do use it.
Thanks for this tidbit Kaurmine, I was wondering if fonts and such could be set. I now have my answer. I know I will stick with ElvUI, they update fast and often enough to keep it working.
Depends on the actual item… but yeah I do in some instances. My biggest things that I use Elv for is position and size of the element itself. But font size/color do come into play occasionally.
Now that you said that, after thinking about my UI Setup, I will 100% agree. I guess with ElvUI I set the global fonts and be done with it.
See and I don’t… My hot keys I have larger as well as the utility items underneath the chat boxes, and then the stuff under the chat boxes themselves. All have customized size… I general don’t deviate from the font the use, but size, position and color… most definitely.
Why?
They really need to, Macro UI hasn’t been touched in ages lol.
I’m pretty sure Dominos has “profiles” so you don’t have to set anything up you just load the profile and your bars will be as you want them.
Nope and the stock UI only comes with 4 fonts I think, 4 or 5.
It depends I may still be using my Shadow Unit Frames since buffs/debuffs are placed above the unit frame and I may still use Basic Minimap, I prefer a square Map over a round one. The last will be Kaliel’s Tracker as I have gotten really used the tidiness of the tracker. Besides that Bagnon may still reside depending if you can move the bag frame with the new UI. The only thing I can think of not using moving forward would be Dominoes.
ewww no thanks. I will definitely stick with ElvUI then.
On a general note…
You know what MMO has an awesome interface editor that let you edit everything. Star Wars the old republic. If Blizz did something like that it would be pretty amazing.
