Sure a lot of experienced players (nerds) love to edit the entire game so it suits them down to the ground, but an option for actually skinning the client is overboard. Too many interface options make games feel like they are not entirely sure what they want to be, especially the general client interfaces though I don't think I've ever seen another game offer that. I feel as though the client is being changed to promote to investors what it can provide rather than showing professionalism and progression as a game, and this is what should probably be addressed.

I would love a more unified Graal, but I doubt that will ever happen so I at least hope for this. There is a lot that a majority of the playerlist disagree with when it comes to the design of Graal... like the website, the blue GUI and so on, but Stefan seems to disagree so it's probably gonna stay. At least give us the option to change the way it looks. The blue GUI is ugly and I can't find a decent WBA that I like and that works.
Either way, what's the difference if we can skin the client? The option is already there, just poorly implemented... What I suggest is a default skin that
looks nice, to detract players from wanting to change it in the first place. But skinning is always good, people all have different taste and to give them the option to make something look the way they want it is always a plus. To say the a customizable interface detracts from the unity of the game is pretty preposterous. Only the
default look matters, as that is... well, what's defaulty seen. Customization is only seen by the person, and has no effect on the game outside of them.
