Looks like something you could use a console controllerOh.
Looks pretty cool, but I don't like sliders in customization. It's just so much more convenient to have little previews, that way I can go straight to the option that seems cool, without clicking through every other option.
The interface looks cool, but it reminds me of something.Something akin to character customization screen on cons...Oh God, no.
kinda looks like a mobile game with the circles.
This is a huge step down in terms of UI design, the biggest taken so far. There's no sort of visual fidelity. Where are the faction banners to help give them identity? It was a neat little way to divide up the creation screen. Not to mention, look at how empty the screen feels. The lack of text boxes talking about the faction, race, and class give the player nothing to go off. It's unfriendly and unaccommodating to new players. How are they supposed to learn anything about their character while making it? SWTOR and FF14 have these, and they help influence the player in picking a character to roll. Shadowlands could've brought them back since it wants to be class and character-oriented, but sadly they're lacking.It's also more convenient and visually striking to be able to see your options instead of go back to the method of thumbing through them all individually. It's regressed back to the days of classic except without the standard UI design, so now it just feels even more empty because of the negative space. If they stick with this to release, I at least hope somebody makes an addon to bring back the old design.Though at least we get some depth of field action on that cc screen, which is nice.
LESS CIRCLES PLEASE BLIZZARD
No excuses to add more races now!
This new menu spoil a new playable races
I'm going to miss the one we've had for almost two decades, but this is so much nicer.
I am moderatly worried that the round buttons reflect a more mobile port, than a console port. Go check out the Diablo Immortal UI.
Im not digging the new character creation screen. Too much empty space for my taste.
Am I the only one who doesn't like it?
I don't really like it honestly. Simply because i liked the old more "fantasy" looking version, with the different flags behind the races, sure def needed an upgrade after allied races joined but this one looks somehow too modern and clean, doesn't fit wow, sliders are also kinda weird. Not my cup of tea, sad to see such an aggressive style change but most people seem to be happy with it so i hope it works out better than what we have now.
I don't hate it by any means but I do agree with some that they should still use the Alliance and Horde banners behind the races. It was always a nice little touch. The preview boxes being gone is whatever. I never found them to be all that helpful anyway.For some of you talking about the description boxes being gone I have a feeling it will come back and has more to do with subraces being included now. Like when you pick a dwarf you're no longer just a dwarf from Ironforge. Same with the trolls, you're not just a Darkspear, so I'm sure pretty much all the descriptions need to be reworked.
