I know it is being critiqued on every forum but there is something that people overlook.
What are the odds that the site was made by diversity hires and what does that mean for the future of warhammer? I know it is going woke bit by bit but I think they are accelerating the process.
In case anyone did not see the new site: https://www.warhammer.com/
Browsing is not only annoying but it is missing features like 360 rotating minis or have a paint suggestion. Also it looks like a popup from a torrent site.
There's some template with this kind of layout that's web designers seem to love. I've seen quite a few sites designed like this and it's very annoying because they like to hide stuff behind lots of menus making it harder to navigate
If it can all be templated then why not at least select a good template? They've realized they don't need to reinvent the wheel but then attached a wooden crate to the axel.
Websites have become template-spawn. One of my side hustles is doing research for a couple of people who do mall/retail history stuff (yes, dead mall stuff), and about 90-95% of malls use the. same. exact. template. And it's not like it's "all malls owned by one company" use the same template, it's every company. Simon, Namdar, Kohan, the only holdout is Triple Five.
But then, every aspect of American life is becoming homogenized. All meals must taste like all meals of that type, every town needs the same stores, everyone must live in the same houses and drive the same cars.
It feels to much like they put a lot of focus on advertising warhammer and very little on being functional
It's a Wix design right? my website is exactly the same.
