NEw PS 5 Ui looks better compared to PC version please fix the PC version!




On top of that let us remove the minimap, thx.

I wouldn’t call it better without seeing how it plays. Definitely less of it.

It looks like dedicated controller UI, so one would assume it would be usable on PC as well.

Eh don't want to be that guy but this trailer did a huge spoiler about who the absolute is... like why !?? They basically told you the whole plot

I've seen someone complaining the absolute as a vilain is weird cause "it doesn't have a face".
I guess now it does.
xD

I watched it again. How is this better? Is the chain system gone? Can I individually control party members with no fuss, maybe by just clicking on their portrait? I can't imagine how console controls would be any better, especially given how ham-fisted controls are on PC.

Does not look better at all to me. There is even a wheel to select your attack.
The only thing that is better is that the screen is a lot cleaner, but many suggestions were made to make the UI less overwhelming (like removing informations that are given more than once, better ui for spell_container, better ui for items, smaller minimap, reaction ui, big health bar+name+buff+action+... on top of the screen, highlighting tab system,.......)

I'm not feeling anything from that trailer.
Maybe is the overly bluish purple color palette and overly bright lighting?? There is no hard shadows in this game. Like in game brightness and shadow brightness was set at +50.
Or its maybe the stiff/weird animations?
Something is just off in the graphics.

Eh ... what?

What is this, the PS3? My god are the shadows/lighting awful for so many scenes in thegame. This villain is almost comical. He was copy pasted in that scene with zero environment shadows.

If we’re talking about Ketheric, the Community Update says that he’s one of three (presumably of the Absolute’s chosen?). And we also see more mindflayer stuff, but that’s hardly a spoiler so I’m not sure we have any more info about who the Absolute is than we did before. Feel free to clarify, but perhaps in the Release Date thread where there’s already some discussion on this point so we don’t end up saying the same thing in multiple places .

When he says “Bow before the absolute” he doesn’t talk about himself. He is one of the three Absolutes lieutenants.

And he looks like he urgently needs to go to the toilet to poop, or at least he looks like a volleyball player in poop position.

He's actually trying to remember that peculiar dance that his Māori-realms-equivalent friend taught him - it's meant to intimidate people before a fight, right?

The most worrying thing about console UI to me, is lack of combat log - or any indiaction that it still exists. If BG3 had an ambition to clearly communicate its combat systems without a need for a combat log I would be all for it, but so far a more detailed and informative log is a "must-have" feature.

What a bouncy and lively Necro. ^_^


Log in general. There are a few situations where you only get gold as a reward. I have not been able to see anywhere how much the respective amount of gold was...

Animations, cutscenes and the overall artistic design/colour palete continue to be terrible. Little hope at this point.
