Also, being a visual design nerd, LY has such a great looking UI compared to the ugly, ancient interface of UE4! It’s such a pain to use the unreal editor, especially on a small screen.

What puts you off about the engine at a first glance is the unfortunate interface design, I think it looks like it came from windows 95 with one of those themes installed. Not to mention that it’s slow as hell, the thing must be eating 10 percent of your GPU alone.
… ]Remove all the colors and bulky icons keep them where it matters, make the interface more monochromatic dark like in Max, Maya, Unity etc… keep things functional.

Apart from that it has nothing to do with this thread, I want to note that I absolutely disagree with you on that. The UE4 UI is extremely awesome and way, way better than anything that Lumberyard or Unity has. The whole UI being monochromatic dark like in lumberyard looks very unpleasent and its just a very hostile UI that stops people from even trying the software. Software like maya and 3ds max all have this very hostile UI that makes it very hard to learn how to actually use it.

With UE4, you quickly find what you look for, even if you’re not too familiar with it. And UE4 just looks way, way better. Lumberyard is really what looks like windows 95.

You want UE4 to go back to the UDK look, which is quite similar to Lumberyard if you think about UDK just with monochromatic grey icons. And UE4 was a huge improvement over UDK, especially regarding the UI.
