You mean the visual design of the bar or the unit used to measure health?

Anon, classics like Final Fantasy Mystic Quest did this, what are you talking about?

>character portrait changes when you have low health

I always appreciate it when the UI is not garbage.

There's a health bar in the top left as well like you'd expect, but the lights at the end of your character's antenna go from green to yellow to red as you lose HP.

no one will ever make a better ui

Dante's idle animation during battle changes depending on which melee weapon you have equipped at the moment.

Good UI design in general. It's kind of a small detail but it's so easy to fuck up.

>Defeat a boss
>All its minions run away from you in fear

>If you can defeat the enemies in one round of normal attacks, the game doesn't even bother loading in the combat screen and just skips straight to your victory

>Shopkeep tells you which item are better than what you have equipped right now
>Offers you to equip what you buy right now and sell back your old stuff automatically

>There's an item that allows you to sell stuff from anywhere so you don't always need to backtrack to a town if your inventory gets filled in a dungeon
>Similarly, it's possible to order food so you don't have to backtrack to resupply if your inventory gets low in a dungeon

>If your party leader dies, some NPCs will have changed dialogues while speaking to the second member of your party

>Characters have food preferences that gives them greater/smaller health and magic regain buffs depending if they like what you give them or not

>Spying on an enemy doesn't only gives you info on its stats and weaknesses, but also allows you to steal whatever item it would have dropped upon defeat

Why's mystic quest bad? It's the only FF I finished, but I haven't played it since I was like 10.
