Genuine question, I have fun with the games but the UI’s of the are so horringly bad and not user friendly. Whats the philosophy there? (See Dragons Dogma 2).
Salty weebs popping up in the comments looking to defend their precious Nippon.
It’s just Japanese design choices. Many Japanese websites look like they’re from 1999, and while the Japanese are kickass at making games, their regular non-gaming software engineering isn’t actually that good.
The best UI I ever saw in a vidéo game is from Persona 5 a japanese game
It’s not just the games… trying browsing around on the web on JP-specific websites, LOL, it’s like going back in time to 2001 internet.
JP (and other Asian) UI/UX design is starkly different from Western, so much so it’s a documented thing UX designers study.
You’ve never played Persona 5 Royal. Best looking UI ever
