Having to cater to a wide range of resolutions means it's easier to just use simple frames for your menu.

People are incredibly rat-like and compulsive now. You have to design menus for people who are flying through the game for 40 hours a week blasting their brain with dopamine and listening to podcasts/streams on the other monitor
Turning on a game and appreciating each screen slowly isn't what people do anymore. Not only do they not doing the act of doing it makes them anxious and jumpy

Too much soul. Labeling the menu options would have been nice since the area to mouse over felt oddly constrained.

The labels are shown at the bottom
Also this menu changes after a certain story event and you are on a different ship.

I meant where you're supposed to click them. Like the exit corridor is only the door on the side and not the whole archway so finding it is a bit wonky.
I gave up after the """"stealth"""" mission where you're supposed scan stuff while avoiding patrols in a stolen alien ship, so I guess I never saw the second menu.
