detailed description of UI in 2.0 screenshot

So I came across this information today. It's kind of old, but I don't remember seeing it before. I figured I'd share it:

Yes, it's old and yes we've all seen it already, and the UI has changed significantly since then.

Oh, what a relief. Now I rest easy knowing that every single person has seen it already since you told me so. :P

In what ways has the UI changed? I'm curious.

Just look at the screenshots on the official site. You know, the ones that have been released to every media outlet when E3 hit...

I guess when you live under a rock, you can miss things like this. :p

The biggest change is to the party display. Your EXP bar is shown at the top (and it's in fact the line that seperates "Solo/Light party/Full party" from the list of party members; The buff icons look drastically different, and your own TP is shown there; The UI now shows actions being currently executed by party members- if they're casting a spell, you can see their cast time bar; Crafting is apparently seeing significant changes; while on a crafting class, instead of an MP and TP bar, you have a CP (crafting points) bar. Unknown how it's actually used.

Why not just start a new thread for every outdated piece of information you haven't seen? After all, there's no guarantee that every single person has seen it.

Come on. Use your brains.

I see very little that looks different.

Considering people make comments on here every day like "what are the dots on the bottom right for." I hardly think this threads that inappropriate. Before you make another edgy post about how mad you are that I would have he audacity to share something with the public, take into consideration that I don't care about your opinion first.

I just listed many of the ways that it's different. If you don't see much that looks different, then I don't mean to offend but you're not very observant.

You edited that post and added that information, at the time I made my last remark it wasn't there. Everything you mentioned is cosmetic, and none of it changes the descriptions given in the OP so I don't know what your point is. I guess you're just a rebel with out a cause.

Explain to me how a totally new stat for crafters is cosmetic?

Explain to me how information being displayed that wasn't displayed before is cosmetic?

Also, you didn't ask for different functionality. You just asked how it was different. It doesn't matter if it's "just" cosmetic. Many of the changes affect useability.
That "rebel without a cause" thing doesn't even make sense. I'm not "rebelling" against anything, and I do have a cause- to inform you of two things: 1) that you posted old news, and 2) that there are actually things that have changed since then. Just because the changes aren't things you care about doesn't make them not changes.

I'm not taking the time to explain anything to you. If you don't like the thread don't read it. If you don't like me, do us both a favor and block me.
