No, it's just the placement. In the middle. I can't really put my thumb into it, it's just seems... a bit off.

I think it would be better for the Logo/Crest thingy to be integrated with the menus, like it is on BG2. And full-on skeuomorphism on the button.

Yea I know, console gamers. smartphones. A bazillion devices BG3 needs to work on so...we get boring menus and easily resizable dull UI icons.

Agreed on the cinematic part of it.

Absolutely disagree with this kind of design. It's borderline crime against humanity this design, it's upsetting.

ps. sorry, don't meant to be mean.
