Gez and I once thought Bethesda's site layout was bad. You and I must be using a different site, then, because everything's pretty much precisely where it was on the old site. So far, I haven't found anything that isn't available on the redesigned site that was available on the old site. As for the "page space" issue, I'd much rather this than too much information. And besides, what would you suggest they fill the page space with? You DO realize that the old site had way more page space than the new one, right? Look at all the blank space. I'd like to know what YOU'RE smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sopmac45 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 The new design is great, looks more professional and I like the big icons and the layout. I understand that some people do not like it at all and would like to stick to the old design. Well, unfortunately, the old one will be gone soon and the new one will take place. Soon, we will have Vortex and NMM will be gone too. The process started to change the entire Nexus and it is on its last lap. Let's embrace it and enjoy it folks cause there is no way back to what it was before, simply like that ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marauder345 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) Well, besides the fact that I got a migraine the first time I saw the new design, I'll probably adapt to the new one. Personally, I don't think it's user-friendly in my honest opinion. Oh well, change had to happen eventually, I guess.

If I remember correctly I have disliked every iteration of tesnexus at first, and when nexusmods rolled out I think I may have disliked that also. The new design is slick though and it scales very well on a 4K screen so I appreciate that. The single page design will also be great once I am used to it and know where everything is.Thanks for all the hard work and continual site maintenance/file hosting. These site hubs have been my homepage for years! It is crazy to think I've been here for over a decade.Exactly. I remember how when the last update happened, the same people who are now strongly against the new design, and want to keep the current site how it looks and works, were with the same enthusiasm hating the same changes they now all want to keep. Life is change. You have to move on. It won't be that bad when you get used to it. And when the next changes come, mark my words, you are going to hate them too, while shouting how you want to keep things how they are.
