"Horrid" is a very OTT description. The UI is in many ways a marvel of convenience. Also, use a custom client.

It's still anti-ergonomic, though. For example, having the combat stuff spread around all over the screen is just plain wrong.

Yupp, there is plenty of room for improvement. Point being that the more I look around the more I think we've done a pretty good job with it considering the premises we started from. Have you tried playing Wurm Online?

H&H is a lot more professionally done game than Wurm, so I hold it to a higher standard ;)

I'm just saying that given the level of excellence this game has (unfinished features like sieges notwithstanding) it deserves an AAA title interface.

Don't be too happy about the compliment, it's actually a thinly veiled critique :P
