Much better, only thing I'm not so keen on is the belt.
What the graphic man says. Best interfaces are always simply, minimal and neutral.a game interface shouldnt draw attention to itself its just quick access to the tools you need to play the game, although im sure anyone could go to town the reason that they have very few colours is so your attention doesnt focus on it. Especialiy if your using the Yellow-Orange-Red colour range you brain will notice it much more then other colours.
