i guess the question is whether you want to adopt fixed width as an aestheticbut honestly i don't think it's a good idea
The question is more if we want to *abandon* the fixed width aesthetic :)
what i mean is if it was there for technical reasons before but now you have options, continuing it is making an aesthetic of it
Right; I'm just a little conflicted about throwing that out. On one hand it's pretty bad, on the other hand it's so Qud.
honestly i trust you and @ptychomancer to give the game a distinctive design voice without enshrining historical artifacts
My main concern is just that we have like 20 years with mud/console design and much less with more modern stuff.
but I guess we need to figure out 1990s visual design sooner or later.
you don't actually! and personally i would rather you continued being amazing at things that nobody else is doing...
...than successfully became mediocre at 1990s visual design.
Based on the direction of the new UI, I think we can safely abandon fixed widths w/o compromising the retro aesth
maybe ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ; not sure how clashy the weird low-fi imagery + a modern proportional font will be overall
