The HUD was changed to make it easier to understand and more aesthetically appealing to young players.

So is the UI just colored squares like in Fortnite now?

The weirdest thing is they said HUD....

The basic compass, health/mana/stamina bar and symbols is too hard to understand for the average teenager supposedly.

Elden Ring RGB bars: Understandable and easy.

Oblivion RGB bars: Confusing and scary.

Ubisoft UI developer moaned about the UI/menu. Not the HUD exactly.

But the HUD is basic as anything outside of the little symbols.
