I PM'd you too. So much love in the room!
kinda like a swords and sandals with orc eh?
What really gets me about this screenshot is the amount of numbers on the HUD.
I can understand that money and time are presented as numbers, because they probably don't have a limit, and the individual numbers are important.
Presenting Attack and Defense to the player is different though, because there's not gonna be much of a difference between having 21 attack or having 22. What's bad about using numbers is that they don't give you any information on the scale- Like what's a high number and what's a low number. Also, it takes a second for the player to read and register numbers to work out wether they're doing good or bad. It distracts people from the game.
That's why I think, for the sake of people who are totally put off by classic RPGs, you should present statistics like this as a graphic; like a bar, or maybe blocks that go up in increments of 10s. It's why they invented Graphics interfaces, and it makes games more, for lack of a better word: Intuitive.
BOY DID I GET CARRIED AWAY WITH THAT ONE! I'll make this next point quick:
MAKE THE ORGAK'S HEALTH BAR STAND OUT MORE. TRY MAKIN THE OUTLINE WHITE? I DUNNO.
