Hi,

I know it's been a while since the layout has been worked on, but I do have 1 comment.

Since I do a lot of clicking, the fact that you have to click on the navigation buttons instead of hover really affects my overall experience while on Sylestia. (In a bad way) :/

I would loveee if the new navigation could be a hover navigation like in the first layout. Anyone else think this?

I'd like this!

I'm also still used to the main bar still being a link to general areas (ie account automatically going to overview, shops automatically go to the shop catalog). Not sure if that can still be a thing.

Well, I'm kind of torn between the two, personally. On one hand,I do prefer the hover when I am on an actual computer. However, the click menu is much more friendly for mobile or tablet users. I use my phone when I don't have access to a computer (I am using phone right now as a matter of fact) the hover is impossible on mobile. I have to go to the newer clock pages to get to most parts of the site.

Perhaps an option? Where you could choose hover or click (if a mobile exception to the hover is unavailable)

I'm torn on the subject, due to playing on both a computer, and my cell phone. On one hand, the newer version is great for when I'm on the computer, because it feels more stream lined, but it is a pain, because on a cell phone, I'm pushing everything but the buttons I WANT to push. The older style is nice and east for users on phones and tablets, but on a computer, it feels slower and clunkier.

I like the newer version on my computer, because hover-over dropdown menus and I don't get along. However I get that some people may prefer the hover option... So why not add an option for players to choose which style they would like when?

It seems unlikely that an option would be made for the menu bar...

and I think if I had to choose between always hover or never hover, I would go with never.

I just look forward to the day when the menu bar is the same on every page. I can never remember what heading to click.

hehe, between the 2, you'd go with never? The menu bar just -KNOWS- what you want? XD
.... would be awesome, though, if it did. X)

I think she meant never hover as in a click menu.

I didn't think about for mobile. So seems like having an option would be best. It seems plausible, as I doubt it would be much effort to implement.
