PC gamers are use to getting the short end of the stick when it comes to the user interface. Sometimes we are stuck with elements that do not mesh properly and other times we just do not have any control over what appears on the screen. Arkane Studios' Dishonored looks to change all of that, thanks to a wide variety of UI options we can adjust. You can select a different type of crosshair to display, how often your Health and Mana gauges are on the screen, and a ton more. Pretty much every aspect of the UI can be changed on the PC version, plus you can just disable it all to get as clean of a look as possible. PC gamers will also be getting the unique "shortcut" bar that appears on screen when you hit a shortcut button, which defaults to the number row. You can also use the Quick Access Wheel by clicking your mouse wheel, but the shortcut bar should be familiar to any PC gamer. Arkane has a few other options not shown in the screenshots, such as adjustable FOV, mouse smoothing options, and the full range of graphical options to ensure your copy of Dishonored looks the best on your computer.
