I'd argue it's not even a preference, but a requirement to have vital info like that as close to the center of the screen as possible if you're raiding hardcore. At least it is in WoW.In FFXIV you can customise the UI and enlarge/ensmol/en-get-rid-of any parts of the UI you want
Here's mine, the tank is dead cause he tried to kill me but stacked a tankbuster on the other tank. So I'm happy he got dead
As I'm a healer I like to keep the party list as close to center without obscuring mechanics, personal preference but darting my eyes back and forth gets really uncomfortable and exhausting and causes me to make errors.
Other choices I make include making boss cast bars absolutely huge and in center view as well.
I set it to turn off whenever I am doing instanced content. My gripe is actually how quest markers only show up when quests are marked on your list. I really wish I can just have all quest continuation markers so I can have "oh this other quest is over here let me do that while I'm in this area" scenarios.

600+ hours in the game and I can tell you they're not slowed or delayed... as multiple users have said, it's a perfect UI for the gameplay of the game and every single piece has its purpose. It's even a great size for playing handheld. You can dislike it though - that's not what I'm arguing of course!
It is absolutely not perfect for the game. There's a ton of extraneous info. For a start having the icons and the icon text instead of just well designed icons that you can see what they are. Having statuses show visually or with a small icon instead of ENRAGED with a big blue box over it is unnecessary. Even having things like the character level is not necessary to show in battle. Plus having the various link attacks plastered on the left, right and centre of the screen is overkill. Xenoblade 2s UI suffers from feeling the need to show everything on screen at the same time. Terrible UI. Terrible game.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ worked great for me, a user who interfaces with it. fantastic game
Oh yeah there's no denying that it gives you all the info you need. It's just butt ugly.
I always felt this was the best camera angle for MMOs. I have yet to change my mind.Ragnarok was where it was at.
LOL I was about to make a joke about somebody never being in a raiding guild
Uh, you can literally turn off 90% of the UI and still play just fine.
Was hoping someone would post GW2's. It is not customizable like WoW's or FFXIV's, but it does have all you need without worrying.I always go for a minimal clean UI look. Here's WoW with GW2 UI
I remember there was some popular private server I used to play with thousands of members and it was kind of lame how the most powerful people were just the ones who donated a ton, got all the perks (I think there were significant benefits in guild wars, and other area) - literally just pay to win.Ragnarok was where it was at.
I was mad at ESO only allowing you 5 skills on the bar at a time, then i am reminded of shit like this
It's the only single player game I boot up as frequently as an online multiplayer

Theres some unnecessary garbage like too big chat box and the sidequest list here
I know, but never let reality get in the way of a joke
Yeeeeesssssss.......
