THANK YOU!

I see a profound lack of feedback and corporate memory as the main problems in the last few player revolts.

The Exalted are only listening to Marketing, and nobody is playing the game, themselves.

As in, they didn't experience or learn from the weapons icons nobody could see, and now they proffer ship icons nobody can see.

My impression, which you captured, too, is that these 'improvements' look good in the marketing spewed to a bunch of teenagers who watch too many space cowboy shoot'em ups, but the reality is they are a step backwards in game play.

I am giving the new UI a chance so that I get around my natural aversion to change. However, my first impression is "cluttered".
especially the big scrolling message box in the middle. I will have to look to see if I can move it. Haven't tried that yet but I will this afternoon. It seems like that would be a good thing to put in a window and let players move around rather than putting it smack in the middle of the screen.
