Default GameWorld Network SE:V Review (83%)

Halfway decent review of SE:V @ GameWorld Network

Good review again, was surprised they gave it as high as an 83% God I hope Aaron reads this and realizes the biggest problem with the game is the horrid UI. I hate using keyboard shortcuts...

Agreed. Keyboard shortcuts can be incredibly convenient, and for some it can even substitute for a UI. Not for everyone, though.

Um..the ui is fine. Only thing I think needs work is the number of options in the minimap. It should be zoomed in and draggable and give you all the viewing options that you get when you maximize it.

I'm fairly certain a significant portion of recent posters disagree. I could be wrong.

The UI is fine, I picked it up in no time, I know where everything is, I thrive in it. I just don't get why people can't pick it up....

Looks like the review is dynamic or got adjusted by the author, it's at 60% now

Cheers!

P.S. People are naturally, inherently, resistant to change. This happened when we stopped being a nomadic culture. The only good change in 'Most' peoples eyes is 'adding more' to your space, (aka clutter) Take a look around your computer desk, do you remember when it was a clean desktop, no? I rest my case. LOL
