There'll be an official comments thread once a devblog is published.

It will be interesting to look at it on SiSi and form an opinion on more than a screenshot in the o7 show. Hard to say much at all based on what we know so far.

I know, its character skill window and you will not see it very often, just basically find skill you want, put to skill queue and dont bother anymore with looking at it, but damn. I never like to read chinese on my screen.

Agree 100%

By the way, I see nothing wrong with the current Character Info Screen.

Not Empty Quoting

Also why Couldn't this be 3 Columns? instead of 3 rows?
If it was Columns then the Nasty Vertical text could go horizontal.

Also as it currently looks It would look better on a Portrait screen orientation, I know VERY FEW PEOPLE THAT HAVE THIS, please make this screen wider rather than longer.

Edit: also why is there no official Dev thread in the "Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center" for this change?

Dear God!

As someone who already has problems with the light grey on dark grey text this looks like my worst nightmare.

Are the devs so bored that they have to go and find something that works and turn it into something "kool"?

Others on this thread have got it right. Why have to swivel your head through 90 degrees just to read a bloody label?

Still as Scipio Artelius says this will be out for review on Sisi. I will be following with interest as I reckon the reaction might be a bit stronger than CCP anticipates

You know, this window is actually functional, has tooltips and overall is a major improvement over the old character sheet. It's much more clear and I feel a lot of people are putting it down simply because "change". They showed some pretty cool functionality on the o7 show.

The only thing is that CCP needs to pull its head out of its ass when it comes to the vertical f*cking text. A UI needs to be easy to read. This is not easy to read and thus not a good UI. Period.

Normally I'd sit and laugh at people resiting changes,
vertical text in a ui is stupid though so I'm with ye on this one.

Came to lend my support to the NAYYYY camp
...had seen the image on Reddit, opened it some more just to see exactly how much fckup there was in there...
then all of a sudden it didn't seem so hard to read anymore and some of it even looks useful?!

:puzzled:

I'd give it a try to be honest. Wasn't broken before but it does offer an interesting midsection and the topside makes category selection easier than a tree.

Just upgrade the old skill window layout that everyone knows and put it instead of this monstrosity.
Add these fancy icons, tooltips, doubleclick, but get things straight and dont try to pivot your mind around how to put round peg in a square hole.

A player mocked up an alternate version and posted to Reddit.

CCP Goliath replied, so it seems the design from the 07 show may not be final:

What if they will not change that because its the CCP "designers gem" and they would pod themselves if they would have to redo it?

I mean, what the hell they have done for this month when they had A LOT OF TIME? Nothing. The issues were there and pointed out from beginning.

Now they can do even less.

Now rather learn to pivot your eyeballs.

You've basically summed up my thoughts on it.

I like the new look but why vertical, it'd make much more sense to make it horizontal and maybe put what's below off to the right hand side.

My only other concern is the moving portrait, I don't know what graphics setting they had on but it looks absolutely outdated. Jagged edges and not a nice render quality. Please let me keep a static one there that is of a high quality.
