    Yeah I don't like it either.

    Not a fan of the colour scheme, but it does look tidier

    It looks really out of place within the client due to most tabs being a different scheme (far to much blue), plus there is so much useless (well to me anyway) junk all over the main page that i have no interest in (i don't care what Total Biscuit and Jim sterling recommend).

    Not liking it at all.

    The one thing I do like is that it now tells me when a game is in my library. But why even bother? Don't show it to me at all.

    Really dislike it.
    The color is terrible, and the layout itself... I'm not a fan.

    But, then again, I almost never go to the store page. I have Steam setup to open to my library first thing. So, hopefully I won't have to bother with the store page much.

    They've also made the big picture mode button look less amateurish. The UI still needs a lot of work. I guess they'll leave that to the community too.

    It's work in progress I guess.

    Valve really needs to update the whole client, because it's starting to look really outdated and since they only updated the store, we can expect more in the near future.

    I would love to block some types of games altogether, but Valve will obviously not allow that. I'm fed up with the "indie" craze.

    I don't mind this new look as Steam does need a change as it's such an ugly piece of software, but how the ui looks is way down my priority list.

    Speeding it up and optimising it would be one though.

    It's okay and like with everything... we'll get used to it. The color scheme is similar to big picture mode/steambox design, I like it. The only thing kind of pointless for me is that queue feature.

    Sometimes I buy games I already own for other people when they are on sale.

    One thing I don't like is them moving the forum link to the community hub, having to load another page to get to the forums is rather annoying, hopefully they'll put it back.

    Well, I don't fancy it much. I don't need personalized offers, I have eyes, fingers, and a brain enough to browse for games I want without limitless suggestions of titles that I don't consider matching my likes in any way.

    It looks like a third party sream key site. Looks cheap like a basic stoc template that youd choose when making a website through google or ....anglefire.

    Though i dont see whats wrong with the standard black/carbon steam client look. Other than feeling bloated as in a laggy way, looks better than the cartoony/nickolodean look of uplay and origin.

    This however is just cheap.

    Is there any way to get the original ui back? I don't really want to opt out of the beta client, since sooner or later it will come to the main client, and occasionally I use in home streaming.

    I'm finding the new layout overbearing, cluttered and confusing :(
