RE: the UI
I like the game over all but the UI is terrible. Everything's clunky and all the stats I want to view are hidden away. Who thought this was a good idea?

Bethesda did about two decades ago. This being a remaster means minimal changes to how the game functions under the hood, including the interface.

Once OBSE is ported to Remastered, we should see UI mods spring back up like back in the day.

Remaster, not remake. The UI had small tweaks but it's basically the same as before.
This was actually perfectly fine 20 years ago.
The only part of the UI that I dislike are the changes to the persuasion minigame, and that's mainly just because it isn't as clear to read as it originally was. Otherwise everything else is good imo.
How do I ReUI? I want to know

They've recreated oblivions UI using UE5 UI ♥♥♥♥. Its UE5s sterile samey feel combined with the original oblivion ui jank what's there to dislike about it?

I have many times and have many copies. The old layout was better.

Sorry I missed a colon. "RE: the UI"
RE: = regarding.

The original was bad, too -- they designed it for consoles, and forced PC players to use their new-fangled console UI, too.

The best thing is to wait for a better UI to be made by a modder -- hopefully someone will port Darnified UI over to this version, and hopefully soon.

Check out these screenshots -- https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/10763

Bethesda did the same with Skyrim, and modders fixed it with the popular SkyUI mod.

This is all normal and part of the charm of Elder Scrolls and Fallout games, in my opinion. Most people who haven't been steeped in these games since Morrowind don't see it, and think "What good is a game that has to be modded?"

The rest of us think "What good is a game if you can't mod the ever-loving heck out of it?"

I don't usually mod games that much because I like how its intended to be played but considering how bad this one is with the remaster vs the original, I think I'm going seriously consider modding it. Thanks tho.

Should have kept the original hi and improved on that did not think anything was wrong with the original hopefully someone mods it to make it better
I hate than you can only see three spell effects that are on you at once. I have a shield spell that has three effects, which means I can never see when I'm silenced by someone's blunt attack or getting burned or poisoned.
