for me, it’s having some kind of gargoyle or angel/demon statues on the edge of your HUD holding up your health and mana

There’s still some interesting UIs being made.

Never heard of this one, thats fucking gorgeous.
System Shock having a psi meter that didn’t actually measure anything relevant to the game was peak UI design.
That rules.
the 1st one (OG or remake?) or the 2nd one?
cause i don’t remember there being any psi stuff on the 1st game. maybe a bunch of lines on the top-left (some of the lines were relevant, like one of them is affected based on how much stamina you had left)
maybe a bunch of lines on the top-left
One of these was marked psi (EDIT: I misremembered, it’s actually labelled “Chi brain waves”), it didn’t measure anything and most people just toggle off. In the remake of System Shock you don’t start off with it active but it can be found close to where you wake up after the intro, it still doesn’t measure anything.
90’s CRPGs were peak UI art.
BG 1&2 were my comfort games I loved them so much. Played it back when it came out as a kid and man, this will always be what gaming is to me.
You must gather your party before venturing forth!
You have been waylaid by enemies and must defend yourself!
Last thing you hear before getting owned by those thieves shooting ice arrows at you.

When the UI is all black semi-transparent rectangles with off-white text/icons
Retvrn to whatever this is
OG Xbox UIs
Dung Hwangbo
Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction, my problematic fave.
rofl the bit about cursors reminds me of when I was 10 or something and downloaded an animated ultima cursor pack on my dad’s work computer. he was a bit mad
Everything that’s not absolutely necessary gets sanded away as the rate of profit falls.
For a relatively simple example, though, I like Brain Lord:
real heads downloaded gauntlet cursors off geocities fan sites and made it their windows cursor
Warcraft II was peak game UI design and it has been downhill ever since.
Dead Space UI is my jam, more of that please
I agree so much! Sure, there’s some “friction” when you want to open your menu in a narrow hallway and have to spin your character around a little to actually see it, but honestly? I find it great and immersive and cool. Dead Space is just really good, really

thanks babe sun’s up another day goes by look at the time fly comment vous dire? La vérité fini toujours par se découvrir, À chaque jour suffit sa peine, Chacun trouve chaussure a son pied, Le temps blanchi les têtes sans mûrir la raison.
RuneScape dragon scimitar cursor was the coolest as a kid haha
