<blockquote>Three brand new Lionheart Screenshots for your viewing pleasure! Note the middle screen must be from a newer built, as its interface is a bit smaller than than the others...</blockquote>

Nice one! Of course, I picked the two without the smaller interface as to not confuse people since there isn't a middle one here! You'll have to go there to <a href="http://www.rpgdot.com/index.php?hsaction=10053&ID=515">see for yourself</a>!

LOL major improvement. The new one only takes up 31.5% of the screen instead of the 33% the old one used.

Yeah seems like they did what they could without ending up with a interface redesign in their lap. They should've put more thought into it earlier, better than nothing I guess.

The interface has never bothered me that much, although I wonder what the empty space down to the right is for.

That's the text box. It expands for dialogue, as far as I can tell.

I don't understand why they have all that floating text with that large inert box with no apparent use outside of dialogue.

Hell, they could even put a minimap in there.

Agreed, they could have all sorts of things there, such as more combat infor, having NPC portrait and quick info show up there when you move the pointer over them, etc. Now it's just unused space most of the time by the looks of it.

The interface doesn't bother me as such, I just really wonder exactly why it is so damn huge.....
