Not really liking the look of it one bit.. don't think mobile gaming is the future for Habbo retros. It's just clunky, and annoying.
Then again, nothing stopping us adopting the new client and just implementing a more desktop friendly UI (like that

As above states, the new client looks centred to the mobile version of Habbo. I personally don't like it and I feel that a lot of people will obviously check out the new Habbo2020, however, I feel like a lot of individuals will end up quitting because of this dramatic change. Moreover, I think that retros will become more popular at the current version and updated to HTML5 when Java ends because of this situation.

this ^^
I can’t see this happening, although it would be nice to see, less and less people are creating and playing retros than ever.

Honestly don’t care lol. Everything has to come to an end at one point. I think it’s time for this community to move onto some other stuff. Habbo/Retros were fun while they lasted but they will never be the same anymore. No matter how much the community tries to keep it alive or keep it from dying, it’s time for it to end.

Yes people will play it until it peaks 10 users daily, wild how the community works
I must be one of few who thinks it's an alright design, sizing looks to be the main issue but for all we know it could be scalable - sure we'll find out more information soon.
For what it's worth, I'm sure Habbo have a better idea of their target audience than people running retros - sure, I'm positive our playerbase is usually a much higher age as they move on from habbo and away from a lot of the things that keep Habbo going which is fansites, agencies and roleplay. I have no doubt those who still enjoy playing Habbo daily (which probably includes very few people here saying they don't like it) will continue to play with a new UI.

The language they're using here makes it seem like it's going to be a downloadable client
Nah. They will probably be using Unity WebGL for the client.

You'd think they'd mention it's playable in the web browser rather than saying it's "cross-platform" and "playable on mac/pc/laptop" in that case tho
Personally thought they could do better...
