I absolutely loved FF 11 having the full focus at the bottom of the screen. When doing sky/Dyna etc it was vital to follow instructions from the LS Leader, so it makes sense that it is the focus point.you guys really liked that the chat bar took up the entire bottom of the screen?
if i had the money and the tech means id put all of that stuff onto a completely seperate moniter and literally only have my groups HP and enimies HP up at the top and top left corner of my main moniter. typing chat doesnt belong in endgame so it wouldnt be needed for me and everything else just takes up valuable visual space.
i HATED that my groups HP was at the bottom right, i HATED that the chat took up THE ENTIRE bottom screen, and i hated the background colors (except transparent grey)
i thought FFXI had the ugliest and clunkiest UI in history and the worlds developers (from what i read) agreed with me when FFXI hit america.
so you didnt use vent? in my endgame vent is required because reading takes focus away from the mobs.
also, whenever your camera angle is pointing forward the mob is always at the top of the screen, you are at about the middle of the screen, so everything is happening at the top and middle of your moniter..... wouldnt it make sense to have all of that also at the top of the screen so you dont have to look away from the action???? hence why it makes more sense to me to have the vital points of the ui up and out of the way of everything. again, vent is free and mics are dirt cheap, typing should be avoided during endgame.
again there is no reasoning as to why having the chat log take up the entire BOTTOM of the screen... it just doesnt make any plausible sense to me! ventrilo people, ventrilo!When doing sky/Dyna etc it was vital to follow instructions from the LS Leader, so it makes sense that it is the focus point.
