UI needs to be changed (or have options)

You are in a minority son.

I'm sorry but I will add silly, random percents to verify it.

YOU = 1%
EVERYONE ELSE = 99%

How don't you like it honestly? The vibrant colors makes it easier to see and maintain. Plus on top of that, you can change it around yourself. Come on people, quit f*cking complaining about EVERY F*CKING THING.

We FINALLY get 2.0 stuff and people nag about it. You wonder why we don't get sh&* to begin with.

I think about it the same way. But we are able to customize the UI.

I think the UI is great. There's a difference between "streamlined" and "futuristic"; I get where you're coming from, OP, but I think they're aiming to make the game considerably more varied in terms of settings (a mix of classic fantasy and futuristic elements), so the UI design seems like it will sit happily in between those two extremes.

The only thing I'd change is that the action bar icons need some more diversity among them (too many of them look too similar to one another), but the rest of it looks great.

The UI is great but it just doesn't flow right. If this was Halo or Crysis, maybe even MW/BF game I think it would be awesome.

When you look at a picture without the UI you see how it doesn't represent any futuristic elements.

hmm sorry very confusing.. but are you talking about the UI in the 2.0 screen shot or the UI we are now at (1.xx)

[Zumi]

If they do support Add Ons someone would probably make a UI to your liking.

The one we have right now doesn't match with the "medieval" theme. Neither have a majority of the other Final Fantasy games. They've always used the Dark Blue background with white text.

Heck, looking at other Fantasy themed games like TERA and WoW, their UIs aren't even themed to the game.

Unless you want Ultima Online's boring, drab, UI, go play that >_>

wait wait wait i gotta say this

they had UIs in the 14th century? is that what you are implying in the OP?

[Felis]

The UI needs to be changed. This isn't starwars! And it isn't a final fantasy based on technology

Not based on technology?

[Chinook]

It contrasts and stands out versus the realistic environnements, which is good imo.

Sorry if it ruins your immersion.

No futuristic elements?
I think that I just might have to disagree with you. FFXIV has always been tagged as "High Fantasy," leaving plenty of options. I liked the old UI, it just needed tweaks. This UI is super smooth.
