I can certainly agree that there are systems within EVE much more broken than the old inventory, but you have to weight in that inventory is something used by everyone, so it might make sense to start there and do, for example, the corp window later as it's only used by a portion of the players even though it's way more messed up.
We did not ignore feedback at all. In some cases we didn't agree. In some cases we did agree and made changes. In some cases we felt that players weren't even giving the new proposed way of doing things a chance and that it might just be a matter of getting used to. It's certain that we didn't get everything right the first time around. That's why we have iteration.

There are many many reasons and many things that you have done. This Unified inventory is a snap shot of why your game will eventually go to the gutter if you carry on.
Put simply, what possesed you to 'fix' something that wasnt broken? Out of all of the problems , all of the issues people have with the game you guys pick the one system that worked just fine.
I agree that EVE`s interface is very old and very bad but it worked.
If you want to make eves ui better the whole thing needs to be tore apart. Have the UI like you do in your videos. Thats something you guys have mentioned before that you will never ever do.
Dont get us wrong, we DO want improved shineys. Just not when the price is total functionality loss.
Come on guys you had SO much feedback on the test server forums, people like Zagdul, Tippia and others spent a lot of time documenting real basic issues. Why was the many pages of advice and feedback ignored?
Dont say you didnt ignore it as you DID plain and simple.
Final toughts - Im personally happy you are looking into this. I am hoping the UI will eventually be just as good if not better than the old system. Just wish you guys didnt allways rush to get half baked projects out like you lifes depend on it... lol
