The Elder Scrolls 6: 8 Things Bethesda Must Change To Stay Relevant

5. Overhauled UI

An important factor for any RPG, navigating items should never be chore, and although functional, Skyrim's menus and interfaces could become a relative minefield.

It's not too bad a first, but as you gather weapons, equipment, spells, quest items, and miscellaneous odds and ends, navigating through it all can become a bit tedious as you scroll through lines and lines of text in order to find what you're actually looking for.

This carries over in to the dialogue options system, as the rows of responses can sometimes prove a little under or over responsive. There's been a few times that I've picked the wrong dialogue choice because of issues scrolling the list.

The Elder Scrolls 6 would benefit greatly from a redesigned User Interface presented in a more interesting way with easier dialogue navigation and more intuitive item management.
