New Ui thoughts

Why does it feel like the game went backwards when it comes to the new UI. Playing on Killer is a nightmare, not only do I already have to look all over my screen for Blendettes but now I have to look up center for Gen count, top left for Surviour status, bottom left for killer Cooldowns and finally my bottom right to see what Perks are on Cooldown. I prefer it when most of those things were just on the bottom left and easy to keep track of. Anyone else feel the same way?

    I feel like I stopped paying attention to gens as killer. I played killer whole evening yesterday. Gens message so dim, I only look at it when I suddenly remember about gens remaining. I'm not sure if it's good.

    Back from a months break. The main field of view feels obstructed and is very distracting. I much preferred it all down below as you don't really need to see the very bottom of the screen.

    At the very least please give us the ability to edit our ui layout so we can choose where it goes?

    Prolly gunna give it another month or so, check back in to see if any of this inefficient ugliness is resolved.

    I think the UI is too spread out and too unaligned. The power/item icon is ridiculously big, but the cooldown bar is a lot harder to see. So are the bleed-out bars. And for some reason they decided to place the survivors and gens left at the top of the screen to further distract you from chases. However, I like the hook counter system (though I think the killers should count hooks, not hook states), and I could get used to the visual aspect of the UI, just not the current layout.

    That's my thoughts.
