New screenshot of TOWN (Game Freak, Switch)
- Thread starter Hero of Legend
- Start date
It's quite disingenuous to post that screenshot without mentionning that you are scanning the ennemy usualy the level bar and morgana talking to you aren't on the screen.So there's only what's around the MC and at the bottom.Wow the UI is almost as cluttered as ERA fave Persona 5
But the same model of different size or region counts as different enemies. And all human enemies use the same mold.
Where are you even supposed to look?
Your combat animations, because xenoblade is actually a rhythm game all along
I didn't play Xenoblade so I wouldn't know that but yeah you can really tell when someone try to damper things that obviously that UI is horrendous.
Yet it's no disingenuous to claim the Town UI is busy knowing absolutely nothing about the actual combat mechanics whatsoever and just assuming some elements are there are needless clutter?
Most games have perfectly fine UI. Things are in motion, they pop in and out all the time. Everytime I see people complaining about UI in games they haven't played I just roll my eyes.
Really depends on what you want to do.
Where are you even supposed to look?
Love the XC2 battle system. Hope we get something similar in the next Monolith game.
You really can't tell that is is worse than Persona and Xenoblade at their worst?
Bottom right mostly, with quick glances at top right, bottom left, and middle right/left pop-ups depending on the actions you're aiming to do, while occasionally keeping an eye on top left so you don't die.
Where are you even supposed to look?
Also once you know what you're doing you can hide the names and things to minimize clutter.
Can you read Japanese? Do you know what all the various elements are saying? How can you not see the absurdity of this argument?
I always hate the bloated UI And would have a lot of trouble playing xenoblade if the UI stayed that way (which you told me doesn't).
But I think persona leave enough space to the eye.
I can't fathom how some people can play with the map overlaying their screen that's so unpleasant to the eye to me.
Does it feel smooth on the eye to you?
I don't like that UI it is a simple personal taste but I feel it is too bloated either too much icon or maybe zooming out might help but I don't need to understand japaneese to know that it would be uncomfortable to play to me ?
Don't get upset if someone doesn't like what you like.
That was the UI with all of the elements on screen at the same time which isn't always the case, it looks like this otherwise
Better shading and models and less aliasing in Town are noticeable to me, no grass whatsoever in S/S, and the shading in the background could be a lot better.
That said worth noting Sword/Shield can improve between now and launch, and it's also a bigger game.

Coming from the person doing the exact same thing at the claim that the Persona 5 UI is cluttered? Really??

Sword & Shield looks clean. Colorful. It's more detailed. It has better color saturation. Better models. It doesn't have ugly shadow blobs. It's more coherent globally and artistically.
Town looks like a Ni No Kuni bootleg.
Still looks pretty ugly. Not necessarily graphics wise, but more... Artstyle wise? The colors are still so muted and weird. I'm really not feeling it. It looks better than it did before though.
That's way better I remember watching a friend playing Aion and I wouldn't have lasted more than an hour imagine this plus the map across all screen in transparency.That was the UI with all of the elements on screen at the same time which isn't always the case, it looks like this otherwise
and there's nothing wrong with that, i love Ni No Kuni art style.
There's still way more space free of UI in Persona than in those shots I was simply saying I find persona's UI less bloated thus I liked it more.
If you want to argue go find someone else I'm just saying I don't like the UI if that hurts you in any personal way that's on you.
You are using the worst screenshot of SwSh available, it seems like you edited out a better one?
We literally can't go a single Gamefreak thread without things immediately going to shit lol
Town looks fine. It's hard to make any judgements without knowing how the battle system works, but I like the looks of what little we've seen thus far.

I edited cause at first i picked a random image of Sword Shield but then i thought it was better to have both images of the combat, with a camera angle that looks very similar for a better comparison.
I don't agree at all with the criticism here for the UI btw, it looks fun and fine to me.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 UI also wasn't that bad and a major improvement over Chronicles X.
Town combat takes place in the same overworld since they don't have to fit Wailords everywhere, it should be compared to SWSH's overworld too.
