    Better UI?

    Hello. The UI of this game is a player's safe haven, where they know it cannot lie and it always will guide them to winning the game. However, sometimes it can be too much. It can either be too in-your-face, too flashy, or that narrator keeps saying what's happening even though it's really obvious what's going on.
    The game already has a very customizable UI, but some UI aspects should be addressed separately so that some players (either impaired or if they just want too) can have a better experience. So that's why I decided to pitch this idea.

    Super-Customizable UI

    New additions:

    Individual Aspects:

    • "Disable and Change Narrator" option
    • "Disable Slash Marks" option
    • "Disable Pre-hit Weapon Sounds" option
    • "Disable Voicelines" option (does not get rids of grunts)
    • "Disable Flashes" option (removes flashes seen on UI and light parries, besides stun-move flashes)
    • "Disable in-match notifications" option (removes notifications/point totals on what's happening in the battle)
    • "Disable Healing-Screen" option (removes the green flashes on screen whilst healing)



    Better Visibility:

    • "Slim Health and Stamina" option - The health, stamina, and feats bar of accompanying heroes and your own are now really slim, about half of their previous size, and the team identifiers are mostly gone, besides the health's color.
    • "Small Feats and Revenge Bar" option - Makes the feats and revenge meter slimmer to be about half of its original size.
    • "Transparent Stances" option - makes the stance indicators hollow, and they are more transparent.
    • "Slim Gamemode Status" option - the gamemode status on the top right is slimmer than it originally was
    • "Slim Heroes Tab" option - the heroes tab on the top of the screen is much smaller
    • "Change Colors" modifier - allows people to change colors of teams, attack indicators, weapon effects, and many other gameplay things that people with visual differences/complications can change to allow for better gameplay



    That's it, short, simple, and to the point. Let me know how you feel about this. Personally, it's a good way to allow more players of different types to play the game, and a great way to increase the competitive field. So not only is it a good investment, it also paves a path for future players of this game. Also, it's entirely optional, as you can have the current game's UI, or customize it to your own liking.

    Anyways, that's all for today. I hope you have a good rest of your day/night!

    Could you also add "Disable in-match notifications?" Even the new ones still obstruct my view during fights.

    I like the idea of a very customizable UI. I will also add somes that doesnt impact the gameplay but can be welcome.

    - option to not have ''levels and loots/rewards screen'' when back from a game.

    - the option ''Remove all 'New' icons'' now still active if you activated it.

    - the loadouts are now in the ''customize'' page for faster navigation.

    - remove the vignette who spawn and stay on your screen until the end of the game because you tried to activate a feat but was not ready to be.

    - option to hide the reputations on heroes picture in the ''Heroes'' and ''Game lobby'' page.

    - option to hide the Executions/Emotes/Signatures and Effects that you don't like, I know we have the ''Bookmark'' option but you can't bookmark the things you like but don't have, same for the gear.

    - you can now dismantle more than one thing in what you looted after a game or with crates.

    That's it for now.
