Problem 1: Quick select buttons (left or right on d-pad) are not "sticking". I can assign a right or left quick-select to a bow (ancient bow) and after using the d-pad shortcut once, I cannot use the d-pad again to equip the bow. For some reason my steel dagger does not suffer from this problem.
Problem 2: it is difficult to tell what will happen when I use a quick select button to bring up a spell--which hand will it apply to? I would suggest this system be altered so that the quick select button modifies BOTH hands. In practice, once an item/ability is assigned to the left d-pad position, it could be labeled 1.L. The next ability or item I assign to the left d-pad position would be labeled 1.R. Then when I press the left d-pad, I get 1.L and 1.R no matter what is currently in my hands. This leaves out a way to assign a hand to be empty/do not change current equipped item/ability. That could be accomplished by holding down the left d-pad on the thing currently assigned to 1.L or 1.R to remove that assignment.
Thanks for a great game! Others can add their experiences/suggestions for the d-pad below.
