Any way to improve relic UI or revert to previous one?

[TheMusicInTheVoid]

As per title, the new user interface when finishing a mission and opening relics, and the interface when refining them as well, are nice to see, but lost functionality.

For opening relics, in the previous interface you could immediately see how many pieces of each available reward you already own, now it's one of the things you have to hover to see. And also, previously, you could see whether each piece was bronze, silver or gold, now you have to hover and find the piece in the list of possible rewards from its relic, to see its rank in it.

For refining, now you have to move the cursor a lot more, all the way to the bottom right, which for new players that join now won't even be noticeable, of course, and most people maybe won't care, but for who was used to the old way, this is annoying; particularly on PS, where you can't set cursor speed too high or you'll lose control, and having it a bit slower causes this annoyance. Using the d-pad is no better, because now each possible reward piece is a "selectable block" which causes a popup, and you have to pass through a loto of those "blocks" to get to the bottom right, while before the list was "flat", and hitting the d-pad two or three times was enough to get where you wanted.

Small things, but annoying things.
Thus, is there a way to change these in some manner or (probably better, for me) revert to the old interface altogether? Can't find anything in the options.

Actually on the top of the item it is stated how many pieces you own. 

And also you can still see which rarity the item easy, at the bottom of the item there is a broze/silver/gold line that tell you the rarity, and hovering over it gives you the ducats price. 

Idk about console but on PC is pretty intuitive and I was happy to see this new changes.

Then it's different on PS. What you describe is basically how it was before with the added hover function. On PS, the only way to see the number of owned pieces (and ducats value) is hovering.
And, correction after I just opened another relic: there is no list of the relic's other rewards on hover; the names are all just a faint yellow, and there is no way at all to tell whether you got bronze, silver, or gold, other than remembering the relic's list on your own or checking online afterwards.

 

EDIT
Further correction, I think I saw the colored line. Very thin and unnoticeable, at the top of each reward (unless what I saw was a decoration, because las mission had all lines of the same bronzed color... not 100% sure that was to mean bronze rewards).
Still, no number of owned pieces, other than on hover.

One additional annoying thing is that as soon as the rewards appear, the cursor is in the middle of the screen, hovering a reward, so you have the pop-up covering a large portion of the rewards (which are smaller than before).

They've implemented a few slight improvements via hotfix, though everyone still seems to hate it. It's possible that the patch that got shoved out to consoles did not even contain any of those slight improvements, though.

Glad to hear there's a first fix, I hope it gets on PS soon.

not only do i agree ill also add its just too much screen clutter.. this is a step backwards , before this update it was clean, you only processed what you wanted. i think we're going to be stuck with it, knowing de, they will stick to their guns, but as a non computer user, i'm really not enjoying it!! and pray something is done about it!

OMG tell me they aren't still cycling everything into that hover over it nonsense.... I haven't actually gone in to check myself but if true then whoever is in charge of the UI really Really REALLY needs to get the hecc over this seeming form over function nonsense of theirs. 

I really like the basic aesthetic of the UI but every change feels like I'm pulling teeth to get to the basic information I'm after and it seems like all of the IMPORTANT things like I dunno .... basic labels are always switched off by default. Look if you want a clean minimalist UI that's fine but that should be the one you opt into not the UI that displays basic information.

It’s pretty frustrating, I agree. There’s more information,  but it’s buried deeper into the interface. 

Not so bad for me now, because all I’m going for is ducats, but if I was collecting full sets I might be a little annoyed.

Bothers me too.. Choosing a relic reward now seems slightly stressful.

10 plat says the UI will only get worse down the road.

[(PSN)Ashagin]

The relic once cracked will have a bronze, silver, or gold line right above the reward signifying whether the reward is rare, common or uncommon.  And yes it is like that on the ps as well.
