Well, at least it's not the Diablo font. The new interface is interesting.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

The font's a little on the 'hard to read' side but apart from that the interface looks just peachy. I'm still gonna get it when it's finished.

Yughh, I hate the font. Make it smaller, non-blue and more reader-friendly!

The interface looks a lot better though.

The is no info box, as far as I know. Combat messages are showed as floating text above the target. I'd prefer white-ish color or perhaps red, but the font has got to change. It looks too sci-fi. A renaissance/ultima type of font would be better if they decide to have a special font. Smaller text is more readable in my opinion, I also would like the dialogue choices being nearer eachother, so it'd be faster to 'quickread' them.

The "floating text" reminds me a bit of Planescape Torment.
Smaller tex size-maybe medium instead of the big clumsy font they have now.

About colors-I guess green would be a little TOO sci fi for the game, but maybe they could have different font colors depending on what type of character you have(for example: People Hater-red, Adventurer-blue,etc,etc), and what disposition he has.

Hmm, interesting...
Not just font colors, but what if different characters would have different interfaces: evil characters would have gothic style interface with demon heads and blood-colored font etc. That'd be a nice little detail. :roll:

Like the starcraft deal?(terrans-sorta mechanical/industrial, zerg-all organic, Protoss-psychadelic/hi-tech)

Yes, but instead of class/race based interface, it would depend on your playing style, or karma.

That sounds like a good idea for both Fallout 3 AND Lionheart.
