problem with wolfgang's meter art


Recommended Posts

the new wolfgang's meter lack of shadows and details in comparation with the old ones as seen here. Idk if is because is in beta yet but i would appreciate if the white arm gains some details

I think I would actually like to see the meter completely changed. I think it's just not unique enough the way it is right now, and Wigfrid's inspiration meter and Wanda's age meter do a much better job of being unique/thematic.

Something that I was thinking of that I thought could be cool, is instead of having it be a meter like hunger/sanity/health are. It'd instead be a bar meter that's appendaged to the hunger meter and looks like those high striker arcade games in terms of design!

The reasons why I would wanna see this are:
1 - I think it's a bit more unique than how it is now. The meter as it is now is a bit too similar to the hunger/health/sanity meters in my eyes. Wanda and Wigfrid's meters are much more unique with how they work, with Wanda's being a literal clock, and Wigfrid's filling up like a pie chart and hitting notches that pop out
2 - I think it would better communicates that the mightiness meter is very closely tied to the hunger meter if it's visually shown as an appendage stuck onto the hunger meter. There could even be animations to indicate mightiness rate changes! Right now I believe there aren't really any visual indicators to show the relation between mightiness and hunger, and I feel doing this would help with that.

Though i'm not sure the idea of drawing inspiration from the high striker carnival games for the design would be a good idea considering carnivals and circuses(which is what Wolfgang is tied with) aren't the same thing. But just an idea :p

I don't see the meter being completely changed since the release date of the actual update is so close, which is completely fair. But i'd still like to see some changes in the mightiness meter to better communicate how closely tied it is to the hunger meter, and to set it apart from the regular 3 stat meters we have.

I love that idea

That'd be super awesome! It would totally fit the character and be easier to understand. Plus, you could put the arms on the sides of the meter as an adornment. I hope Klei likes your idea.
