I really hate the way it takes time to load now the loot menu and store ,why does it have now to show a loading screen every time?

I feel like is much more frustrating to see a loading screen for a menu which last 1 second or 2 seconds to load what's the point of adding it ? for store it takes 3 minuts and the animation is just scracth my brain. [even the colours of it feels stupid]

Thanks for the feedback,

As mentioned below, we took out a number of plugins on client startup until they are clicked by the player.

We did have discussions and made sure any plugin we decided to defer on startup would load within 3 seconds for 90% of our players. We also wanted to acknowledge the user action of a click by introducing that loading widget.

Why did we do this? -- We want to improve the client start-up times for a majority of our players and we were able to achieve this by fixing our deferred loading technology. Think of it this way, If you were to visit a site, it will not load all the hyperlinks that are on the front page, they would load when clicked. With our architecture work, we intend to clean up not only the plugin architecture but have the technology that runs the client work the way it is intended to work.

for store it takes 3 minuts and the animation is just scracth my brain. [even the colours of it feels stupid]

For the last statement, can you message me directly and provide more detail on this?

Thanks
