Some people have harder times with smaller interfaces due to their eyesight thus needing something non-minimalist. It's your opinion saying a minimalist ui is the best. hes a good player in spite of his ui, not because of it. Yeah, it's not happening.something can convey information and also not look like shit at the same time. Also, trying to say a minimalist ui provides all the information you need, I'd like to see you being a tank/healer as well as raid leading in competitive content without extra addons displaying cooldowns of those other roles for when you need to call them out. My two cents, I like these kinds of UI discussions. In general, most of the UIs posted are a mix between functional (just-in-time informational) and minimal leaning more towards the former. I'm often reminded of a reddit post (/r/WowUI/comments/2nm9ty) discussing types of UIs. I feel minimalist is a term that is thrown around waaaaay too often and incorrectly. Hardcore raider aside, if this was some random player who posted their UI on this thread they'd definitely cop a lot more flack. I also agree in that I think Sco's interface here leaves something to be desired but it's not like he needs it to be pixel perfect to work for him. Not only was it far more limited codewise but wow player's UI aethetics as a whole was different as well (not to mention tinier screen resolutions).Īs for the second image, it is definitely busy in the centre of the screen and he could stand to streamline how the information is displayed. Yeah, it's not happening.I don't think it was from Vanilla - note the DK runes and the damage meter looks like which is definitely Wrath era. While Sco's interface isn't something I'd use you really can't complain considering he does exceptionally well for raids. On top of that depending on your role in the raid you may need even more information available. In pve, especially raiding you need specific information available. The only scenario you really have to see all the world around you is in pvp settings. Not everyone cares to have this fluent 1 color/themed interface. There's raid frames, meters, unit frames, weakauras, cooldown monitor and boss mods. His current one is a much better laid out one now compared to then. The interface is also an old one as he has a different practically each expansion. Your 2nd image, while it's not very minimalist it's not very bad. Sure the image actually does have too much but once again, things were new back then. When it came to unit frames back then you had a fraction of what you have now available to you and none of them had the type of customization as you do now. Authors were not as versed in WoW Lua compared to now nor was the api as developed as it is now. Your 1st image is from vanilla and using that as a comparison is horrible.
