MysticRunner Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Hey, long time user here. How do I disable this UI update? It's very disorganised and confusing to look at, and there are many useless features (collections) taking up a lot of space. Thank you. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Nexus staff have decided, in their infinite wisdom, that nobody could possibly dislike this new UI, and that there will be absolutely no option ever to switch back to the old UI. Guess this was someone's pwecious widdle pet pwoject, and their feefees got hurt that people didn't like it. Certainly comes across that way, at least. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand There is a workaround by removing "games/" from the url when being on the games main page. (.com/games/witcher3 > .com/witcher3) But who knows how long the old websites are still online. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napmouse Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Hi, just my 2 cents. This redesign blows. Usability is much worse even though its "prettier," its more cumbersome to navigate and uses space much less efficiently. In my opinion this is a terrible layout and I wish I could fully revert it. It is a complete pain. I don't have anything else to add. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivea Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Also not a fan, its very overwhelming when looking at anything now. Search is pretty bad... But at bare minimum move those collections, why are they more important then the new mods for the day? You wouldnt have collections without mods they should always go before anything else. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RafnarC Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Can I get List back i don't want everything in big tiles it cause me sensory overload and makes it harder for me to use the site 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wardarkfox Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 UI is awful compared to the original. At bare minimum have a toggle for people to revert back to old or have toggle fields in preferences to turn off displaying each area of a game page(trending, collections, more mods, media). Also remove news, nobody wants that in the game page, stick it to the main page only. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial2000 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I genuinely have nothing nice to say about the new layout. Aesthetically it's soulless and lacks character as most "modern" designs do. It's just bad. Not much else to say on that because it's a matter of opinion. Functionally it's just as bad. It wastes so much screen space on absolutely nothing where it could be showing me more mods as it did before. The game title and file statistics above the Trending Mods section is redundant. Seriously, who is that for? It is just wasting space that could be used by the rest of the trending mods. I know Nexus' hard-on for Collections so I won't even waste time on that. The new files section is also burdened by the serious waste of space around the tiles as well as their overall size. Where I could comfortably view ten mods and their descriptions before, now I can reasonably see only four in their entirety. Zooming the page out does not help at all. I'm still seeing fewer mods than I did before at an even smaller size. It's very strange to call this change in favor of visibility and browsability. I hilariously feel gaslit to have read that testers "discover[ed] more new mods than they previously would have." In what reality does showing someone less let them see more? All that said, I'm more frustrated that Nexus continues this trend of making sweeping changes, opening feedback to those changes, then telling those who give reasonable negative feedback to get used to it or kick rocks. I've seen it happen time and time again and fully expect it to keep happening. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindIo Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Not a fan of the extra blank spaces and/or enlarged banner/title areas. Now I have to scroll to view things while going through pages where I used to not have to. I know it's a minor thing to do but honestly it's pretty annoying to do when the older UI didn't need as much motion to view things. And yet again, same as with the profile revamp before, the new UI is laggy and causes my browser to use WAY more resources. How did you guys manage that? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaval02 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) I'll add my two cents of constructive criticism, but the all black look really makes the site look "soulless" The whole collection tab should be moved somewhere else as it's far better not having to scroll too much to look for what new mods came out Edited March 19 by vaval02 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
