is there any game that solved the hud cancer?

>>387133485

Any game that allows you to turn it off. Like Witcher 3.

>>387133485
Dead Space

>>387133567
>map is extremely generic to know where to go without the quest marker
>Geralt doesn't react any different to low health
magic is necessary and the rest can be turned off but the map is necessary even if it's shitty

Cluttered HUDs are my absolute biggest pet peeve in gaming

>>387132012
>Current Sword (Silver or Steel)
>Geralt will pull out the correct sword in battle if one is not selected
what the fucking point then? seriously how was this game so praised

>>387132012
>I want a deep and complex game system that gives no information at all to the player

Nah I'll take my cluttered interface if that's the alternative.

>>387133485
metro 2033

>>387132012

Mostly just FPS cancer.

It's funny, I was watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIpDLa585ao yesterday and all I could think of is that it's just one long presentation on how to dumb down your games and make sure your players never use their brain, and it's presented in a purely positive way.

That's modern gaming for you, I guess.

>>387133485
Far Cry 2

>>387133485
Dead Space

reminds me of some video where the guy was just held 'up' on the controller and the Shadows of Mordor guy was climbing over walls, jumping between platforms and generally being acrobatic and fancy despite just holding up, ending with the words "game design"

>>387134128
Yeah, if only you could disable that feature in the settings menu. Oh wait...

>>387133485
Deceased Area

>>387134790
Huh, us gamers, right? That's our culture I guess...

You can turn every individual piece of UI off though

>>387133707
I played through the whole game without the minimap just fine. You realise you can just memorise the route before going somewhere, right? And the fact that sun rises straight in the east and sets straight in the west?

>>387133485
If UI was slightly better? Main issue is that since its a RPG type of game, you end up with a lot of number cancer, and it eats up screen space.
Compared to something like Drakengard, where visible Healthbars is optional.

>>387132012
You can literally disbale all of those in the witcher 3.

>>387134790
And then they say they aren't pushing (((communism))) through games.
Communism require a population of slaves incapable of jumping without their (((masters))) giving the say-so
>yes goy, play our (((videogames))), stop thinking let it do all for you, you won't need a brain where we are going

>>387136584
You want the buff/debuff visible, unless you spec into potions, so you aren't forced to refresh everything constantly.
Because you need to refresh potions, you need to have what potions you have visible, even if going into the fucking inventory screen is better to do that.
tl:dr
>Potion chugging is a fucking mess, and doesn't need to be there, which is more than 1/4 of all UI elements

Button Reminders is a sign that the combat is somewhat clunky in design/key combos, so it could literally be removed if it where simplified.
The same with the RPG stuff piling up. If display was different, most of it wouldn't need to be there

Rate my hud configuration. Health bar (only mine, not enemies') appears during combat.

>>387134790
Why can somebody with such a poorly planned presentation, be allowed to have one?
By script, she is having trouble communicating.

DaS 2/3's was nice, it would fade away over time and elements would only pop up when relevant, like the stamina bar when you're using it.

>>387132012
Why can't they make it just like fucking dark souls?
OH THATS RIGHT BECAUSE THEY SUCK AT LEVEL/QUEST/GAMEPLAY DESIGN SO THEY NEED TO TELL EVERY THING ON THE SCREEN

>>387138785
>soulbabbies

>>387133485
DS/3DS games tend to offload alot of UI onto to second screen.

>>387137549
>no soul voice
>no community quests
>no overclock timer

Try harder

>>387133485
Ubisoft are actually very good for UI config. Metro games too. However, too often it makes the game unwinnable because it turns of certain prompts for different actions.

>>387133485
Escape from tarkov

>>387137610
>>387137549
Never played it, but nipshit games tend to be very numbers based so I don't mind the UI in them.

>>387139009
I'm pretty sure that QTE prompts are always there in Metro, even in Ranger HC

>MUH MINIMALISM

>>387137549
You realize everything on the right side can be turned off, right?

>>387138785
Because Demon's Souls, Bloodborne, and Ni-oh are actual good games.

>>387133485
Trespasser

>>387138873
No. I can take tw2 or WoW UI as other exemple.
Cdpr went full AC/Arkham gameplay.

Except the latter is not true in the intro area. The sun actually rises in the north and sets in the south on that map.

>>387139196
In my personal preference it's more about immersion than minimalism.

>>387133192
This HUD is for the intellectual gamer

>>387139317
This. I feel like playing w/o my brain when i follow a marker for exemple.

>>387133485
Metro
Hellblade

>>387139196
Do you really need or want more U.I. than above "minimalist" ?

Metroid Prime. Any kind of hud that's at least attempted to make sense in-universe is the best.

Looking at the state of /v/, that seems plausible.

Playing Morrowind recently and goddamn fuck quest markers and fuck Todd. The Morrowind way was so good, I wish more games did it even nowadays

You're all retarded.

Excellent post, you sure demonstrated your superior intelligence.
