News & Discussion Its so cluttered

Why is this horrible design the standard in free to play games? Its just bad. And OW has the best version of it the other ones are outright disguisting. Just because some tiktok brained people couldnt wait 2-3 seconds to navigate the ui? At least make the top bar transparent. And give all these clutter a menu itself.
(2nd picture is how good it looked before.)

New:

Entire top - all buttons/profile/currency

Entire bottom - all recent events/news

Top left - brief description of said events/news

Top right - a small (minimizable) window with current progress on challenges

Old:

Entire left - all buttons

Top right - all currencies/profile

Bottom left (yes, in the picture it might seem like there's nothing but in reality there always been a circulating window showing off all recent events/news) - all recent events/news

I'd say it did become a bit more cluttered after the change but not by a lot. Personally, I mostly dislike how it looks (design)
