Ideas for the Brief

so we got our brief outline, and we have to redesign a ui for a current game out there in the market or make a ui for our own game.

I've decided to work on FFXI as ive played a lot of mmo's and i feel due to this experience i have an idea of what mmo players would like (ofcourse i cant please everyone but i dont think its a bad thing to make it more user friendly) .

I felt FFXI would be a good game to work on as the UI in this game is all based around being quite hidden and macro dependant, once the player gets used to this im sure it works well, but im trying to make it appeal more to newer players who need more visual feedback.

all ive got done at the moment is a few general ideas and some sketches drawn out on a paper so nothing much else to report about at the moment
