Why.

Didn't get long in my tomb.

Look, everyone hates the new UI. Everyone's hated the new UI. Everyone let BHVR know they hated the new UI. Which is, ostensibly, why they put it out into the PTB to begin with.

Y'know, "Public Test Beta". Where they give things a spin for feedback before putting it in the base game.

But this has all just left me really, really confused.

Why did any of this happen again? Who the hell was asking for an entire UI overhaul? Why did they do exactly that when no one asked for it? Why did they test it if they were just gonna put it in anyway? Why is it so important to them that we have this new UI?

And you can't go back, apparently. So not only did you do all this, but you put every single egg you have into this basket while everyone told you every minute along the way that it was a bad idea and they didn't like it and would very much like it if you stopped while you're ahead.


Look.

I'm not frothing at the mouth like a lot of other people are. I don't like it, but i'm not mad. I'm just.. very confused by this whole situation. It isn't very often I see someone wade so hard against the tide to make a bad change that everyone doesn't like for them.

But it feels like there's two different groups in BHVR. The people who work on the game, make the changes, do the coding, do the animations, all that, and the people who're actually in charge.

And the people in charge don't actually play the game. Or any game, for that matter.

They want changes, they tell people to get to work, and the people doing the work don't have a say in it. New UI, we want it to look like this, go.

It's all speculation on my part, but since we barely get any communication, that's all we have.
