Wow, great feedback. Thanks! Someone else suggested something similar about the main menu and the right sidebar. I can't quite picture what that would look like but I'll definitely experiment with it. And on merging the left and right sidebars, I have considered that but couldn't really figure out a way to make it work - I don't want people to ever miss the action thats happening the left sidebar. Everything else makes total sense to me - agreed on all of them. Thanks again for checking it out!

Might be worth looking at how Godot let's users position right/left side bars. Leave it up to users what the final composition looks like. Focus on opinionated logic that enables endless menu composition, not deciding your users preferences.

Perhaps add a notification icon for when users need to be made aware some result is ready for their review/acknowledgement.

The title of the right bar could just be the menu pull down showing the current selection instead.

Yeah, for the player the left bar being the "battle log" and the right bar being their character isn't a bad UX if the rest of the clutter is reduced.
