What game has overall best UI/Menu design? What makes it good?

>>386227951
You just posted it.
I know it's kinda cliche for a personafag but i actually cannot think of a game that even makes an attempt at stylizing their UI and menus.

>>386227951
P5 is definitely the king of UI design. As for what makes it good, I guess it should to be visually interesting without sacrificing clarity and readability. P5's strange font and clashing colors should make it a nightmare to read, but somehow it all looks perfectly readable. It's kind of a miracle of UI design. P5's use of colors and movement in the UI makes it really fun to look at too. The way that the menus transition nicely between each other is great, and the animations are fast enough to not be annoying, while cool enough to never get old.

do the stars represent anything in Persona 5 or are they just for good look and could pretty well be dick patterns instead?

I haven't finished it yet, but stars seem to be kind of a recurring theme. The ending song is called With the Stars and Us, and the new dancing game is called Dancing Star Night.

>>386227951
too bad the game is shit and has a terrible translation

>>386228617
Oh hell yeah, I love Dead Space's HUD, or lack thereof. The health bar on the suit is genius.

This is one of only problems I had with the main menu UI. There should be a way to toggle categories as well in addition to toggling characters.

I wish Joker was half as cool as he is in UI. I thought he was going be ultra smug and stylish after first peering through the start menu. I was very disappointed.

PD's optical implant thing was so shit in comparison

>>386229979
Well, when he puts on the mask, yeah. Don't fucking meme me here, I'm just reminding you that when he wears the mask, hes smug. Mostly in cutscenes

>>386227951
Before Persona 5, I thought Persona 4 was best. I especially love the weapons and med shop UIs in 5.

>>386227951

P5's UI tries too way hard. It's literal eyerape.

>>386233408
Its pretty simple, I don't know what you mean. The colors contrast pretty hard but thats it. Not a bad thing.

>>386233408

>>386228539
I've played it through twice and I don't really get it either, but I think it kinda serves as a compliment to P3's moon (which admittedly incorporates it in way more than just song titles, what with the 12 initial missions and all). Or maybe it's just an arcana thing (though I don't know what P4's would be. Sun?

>>386233769
Sun?)*

It look like shit, especially with how everything is written. Randomly changing the color, size and background of the letter while making everything nit aligned doesn't make a stylish ui it just make it look like it was done by a schyzophrenic ADHD retard.

Also the animations are just a waste of time after you've seen them for the 5th time.

The star actually represent the "Trickster" part of Joker. Japan pronounced it as "TORIKKUSUTA" (Trick-star)
Noticed that the star in the UI always in the part of Joker. (like pic related as example)

Just like P5 Loki's design with white and black stripes since Loki supposed to be a trickster.

His evidence is that he had a schyzophrenic ADHD and can't stand stripes and color red.

He's probably a bull.

>>386234057
You are so full of shit. Unless you're 6, you know the text is just an allusion to how letters were written anonymously by cutting out letters from different papers so handwriting couldn't be traced. And the animations are over by the time you let go of the button. Jesus man, are you even trying

>>386234309
The proof is right there, just look at the game.

Oh but I forgot this is the first RPG you played, I can't criticize that.

>>386234574
I know that and it's still look like shit. The menu animation are still pointless. It's like attack animations.

Doom 2016 has a fantastic menu/UI, crisp, clean, easy to read and intuitive. That's what you want out of a UI.
Also the lore from the database is great and well written, I'd read a Doom novel if it was written by the same person as whoever wrote those.

Can you NIER fuckers get bent you try hard coattailers? Your hype was short lived so you gotta insert yourself in better games. NIER fags.

Good UI means easy to navigate. Being stylish is a plus, but if nobody can navigate through the menus then why bother.

>>386234395
Bulls arent angry at red its the waving of the cape that does it stop spreading lies you cunt

>>386235106
But this thread is about design, not usefulness.

>>386235153
That has nothing to do with bulls being pissed at waving capes

>>386234773
>The proof is right there, just look at the game.
That's... Not a proof. To me it looks perfectly good. You have to prove why is it bad. You don't really need to say anything. I already know that you're either baiting or you're a fag who can't understand the difference between objective reality and his subjective taste.

Don't worry it's a personafag they are a bit slow.

>>386235087
This is why Witcher 2 to this day is for me a prime example of shitty UI.
You want to drink some potions before battle? Sure, but:
>turn on the menu
>choose alchemy
>wait for animation of Geralt sitting on ground, meditating to end
>choose potions from consolized list
>drag them to the one of three slots
>choose that you want to drink them
>watch long and boring animation of Geralt drinking and throwing potion away
>get your 2 minute effect that wears off before battle even starts

A shit look perfectly good for a fly.

I don't get why people like P5's UI.
It's bad on the eyes and some elements are placed in the worst possible spot.
I know I am not the only one who didn't notice the money count on the menu until the last third of the game.

You're unconsciously proving my point: it's nor good or bad. It's just a matter of subjectivity.

It just mean that some peoples are inferior.

>>386235831
Are you 10? This isn't some epic bait, this is just being a literal retard.

>>386235892
Oh yeah I'm sure a retarded man is equal to your average man.

>>386235614
The menu represents the game in a nutshell, really pretty and stylish but makes a lot of missteps at the same time.

>>386235940
What?

Persona 5 UI is one of the worst I've seen

>>386235987
The only way you can protest that peoples are unequal is by saying they are equal.

Simple logic.

>>386235831
>It just mean that some peoples are inferior.
Prove it. I don't give a fuck about being right or wrong. All I want from you is to give an actual objective argumentation. All you give to me are some big fucking package of void. Why is it so hard ?

>>386235153
Navigation is a part of the design

>>386236487
I proved to you that some people are inferior. If you don't see why liking P5 UI make you inferior this doesn't bode well for you.

>>386236687
Yes.

Seriously, why the fuck is there a food trolley in the hospital? And why can't the hospital staff at least prevent the from going in certain rooms?

Also as P4 was a game built around the sun arcana, P5 is a game built around the star arcana

Does that means the canon is the best girl winning?

>>386228539
It's all completely pointless. Just a bunch of flashy bullshit distracting from the important shit.

>>386237684
Canon is actually Hifumi leaving Joker for Goro because Akechi Kogoro in the stories is married to a Fumi and P5 is super consistent about all the details from that story, including Joker having social links for 20 arcana besides his own = the Fiend with 20 Faces

>>386235780
One extremely popular game**
The other has already been forgotten.

>>386237876
That works if you include the Igor social link anyway since The Phantom with 21 Faces is another name for that guy

Yes ? P5 is quite cleary the equivalent of Horizon Zero Dawn : an overhyped "serious" game that only teenagers and naive people who don't know any better can like. It just happen that /v/ prefers japanese game. Otherwise the board would have been flooded with Horizon thread.

>>386228617
>all those health kits
Somebody was nervous, lol.

Better question. Which game has the best menu sounds?

GTA SA is king for me. Just something about that beeps are comfy.

GTA4 BOGT had the best pause menu music in my opinion, but in terms of sound effects, Pipboy 3000 menus can't be beat

>>386241178

>>386241342
Kingdom Hearts 2 beats both GTA games in design and in sound, easily

>>386227951
Why can't ANY Western AAA developers doing anything to that nature?

Everything they do is tiny fonts in big boxes

Then you have to watch this doc, and skip to the part where they interview Hugo Martin

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsoVQWnSOfM
He explains the thought process behind DOOM, and just so you know his biggest influence on writing the story was The Last Boyscout.

>>386237876
Hifumi and Goro would probably be cute, and they're both celebrities who can't be their real selves.
and we all know he's not actually dead
