Default Re: What everyone hated about SE:IV

Griping about the new version is nothing new. These are threads from six years ago, on the eve of and just after SE:IV release:
Reference A

Reference B

Reference C


Reference D

Anyway, you get the idea. The community is bigger than ever and we don't even have the full game in our hands yet.
Right, by the numbers.

A and B are quibbling about gameplay details.

C is about GOLD, not the SE4 launch.

D is *****ing about the AI.

Nowhere in any of those threads is anybody saying "The UI sucks. It's too clumsy, clunky and click-intensive. The ship design is needlessly complex and click-intensive; there is no reason at all to have multiple decks in the ship design screen, none."

Yet those are exactly the things we are saying about SE5.
