I have to admit that just like Starflight, VOD will have a very basic but functional interface. I liked the concept SF had of the whole bridge, engineer, navigator thing they had going on. This means that when you see screenshots of the interface you are firstly going to notice the horrible place holders, secondly you are going to notice the lack of flashy graphics and animations.
What it lacks in flashyness it will have in functionality intuitiveness and relevance. It may seem a little cluttered, and may even seem ‘weird’ at first and may come across as the worst interface you have ever ‘seen’. But I am confident it will be far from the worst interface you have ever used. I estimate it will take you 1-2 minutes to know what every button and readout does.
You can think of the interface as a computer your character calls up to check the various performance of things and issue orders to your crew from. Once an artist helps me out or I buy some art, I guarantee it will look way better. This also means I do not want to scare people off with screenshots of placeholder interface graphics, and preliminary design.
