Am I the only one who dislikes this Health Bar? I mean, the bar part is fine but the Blue Swiggle looks so unprofessional and amateurish. It would look fine if it had no squiggle. Any opinions?
>>
I like it. It adds to the colorful tropical feel

I hope we can at least remove it or customize it in some way.

It's the little things that make a big difference.

Best HP bar

>>28014830
Squiggle is ugly, so is the bar itself.
>>
>>28014830

I could do without the squiggle, but I just don't care nearly enough to really let it bother me.
>>
>>28014830
I actually really like it myself, adds some color to it, the XY bars were so boring
>>
>>28014830
I dislike it too. There is no need for the squiggle to big that big.

OP here. I hope so too. Just a simple bar from any of the previous games would be nice.
>>
>>28014830
Yup. Literally everyone else everywhere likes or loves it. You are the only one with this shitty opinion, OP. In all the world. It's amazing that taste as shit as yours could ever exist.

It reminds me of Sunshine which adds to the tropical feel of the game. I'm a fan of it.

nah nigga, BW2 lifebars still the best

Oh yeah and upon closer inspection

Just start this over
>>
>>28014830

I'm oh ok with health bar.
>>
It's new so of course you won't like it until it grew on you

I didn't like it either

But I said fuck it, it's just a fucking health bar and now I don't care
>>
>>28015170
Super Mario Sunshine you dip. That's why he capitalized it.

Pretty sure the consensus is that it looks terrible and obstructs the screen for no reason. 0/10, literally their worst healthbar yet.
>>
SM health bar > BW2 health bar > Gen 2 health bar > HGSS health bar > the rest
>>
>>28014830
I suppose they're trying to go for an ~artsy~ vibe, but I honestly kind of hate it.
>>
It's fine, but a little too big.
>>
>>28016623
/vp/ isn't the majority, nor are we GameFreak's target audience. Why should they care?
>>
>>28014946
>>28014951
Cup mind
>>
It fits the theme of the game. Stop whining about trivial shit.
>>
I actually fucking LOVE the new health bars. They kinda remind me of Super Mario Sunshine, the bright splash of color gives of a very tropical vibe and is very different from what we had before.

yup, there's something about this swiggle. It just doesnt compose well with the rest of the thing
>>
>>28014830
Like everything else in the game, it adds character to it. Good update.
>>
>>28015249

You point all this out but honestly you listing them just made me notice the little details and appreciate them even more.
>>
>>28014830
>unprofessional
What the fuck does that even mean in this context? Explain.
>>
I don't mind it, but it really clashes with some of the environments, it should change colors to suit the environment or have an option to switch the color of it.
>>
>>28014830
I just want a health bar that doesn't take up a chunk of the screen.

gen 4 and 5 were hell

Its very 90's summer months. Makes me remember my childhood in beach cities, with soda advs everywhere and such patterns in skates and t-shirts

I like the cleaner BW look more, the swiggle seems to uses too much space, imagine how it will look in triple battles.

Personally I would love a more Battle revolution approach, with more stylized bars when dealing damage and stuff.
>>
>>28014830
I'm with ya. It calls too much attention to itself and clutters up the screen on the Battle Royal shots.
>>
>>28021261
I was so hyped in Platinum for the little detail of the health bar having a dark background. It was the first time it looked notably different.

Black 2 is still the best though. The bar, the area names and the intro in black make it aesthetically superior to W2.
>>
>>28015210
>>28015249
So much inspection for a HP bar, it's not like it will change anythig relevant in the game. If you got through the ones from Gen IV you'll make it through these ones
>>
>>28014830
Gen VI's bar was some shitty and small thing over the pokemon. This new bar has more life.
>>
>>28014830
The only thing in gen 7 so far that I don't like

I like it.

La tenes adentro.

>>28014922

Agree

A-am I the only one who never noticed it before?
>>
>>28014830
I'd like it better if the bar was rectangular. I hate how it increases in width as it moves down.
>>
>>28021261
Black2 and FR/LG have the best.

Not a good one

Everything about the Pokeball bar I'll let slide. It's a different hud element, but the hud ought to be consistent. Otherwise,

The gender is at the far right of the name. It's over as far as it can go to leave enough room for names of any length. If it was centered between them it would be shifting around depending on the length of the Pokemon's name. And this entire section of the screen is all about the Pokemon, what's this about the name being more the pokemon than it's level? It's all the pokemon.

No problem at all with different bars being different lengths, especially when they're all on different metrics and the ball bar isn't even a real meter like the others.

Gradient is light enough to make the bar pop a little more without being gaudy. Also makes it look more tropical.

Lv. is written in yellow because it is a static, completely unaltering aspect of the hud. It's yellow to match the other tropical colours there. Name of the pokemon, gender, what the level is, and your HP value all change, so they're white. Or blue/pink in the case of gender, to make it more immediately clear.

Putting "muh" in front of emphatic bolding doesn't make it an argument. Your current HP is more important than your total HP, it makes sense for it to be larger.

idk about the squiggle, seems pretty divisive. I'm not sure if I like it yet myself.
