In reddit one user make some changes in 5 min to make tu interface closer to BG. Also, im sure there will be mods to make it if Larian decides to break 100% with the BG classic interface and keep this more MMORPG option. Also will be mods to have the possibility of a group of 6 and not to be forced to the classic: tank, healer, rogue, archer.

Not digital faces just paints also with the possibility to add the one you like, use the same icons as before. Use the classic icons. I think people will be happy with it.
And also, use latin for spells!:
1) Illusion: "Veritas, Credo, Oculos" = "The truth, I believe, with my eyes"
2) Alteration: "Praeses, Alia, Fero" = "Protecting, another, I bring this forth"
3) Necromancy: "Vita, Mortis, Careo" = "Life, and death, I am without"
4) Divination: "Scio, Didici, Pecto" = "I know, for I have studied, with my mind"
5) Abjuration: "Manus, Potentis, Paro" = "A hand, powerful, I prepare"
6) Evocation: "Incertus, Pulcher, Imperio" = "Uncertain, beautiful things, I command"
7) Conjuration: "Facio, Voco, Ferre" = "This I do, I call, to bring you forth"
8) Enchantment: "Cupio, Virtus, Licet" = "I want, excellence, allowed to me"
