Thus far what i really dislike is the fact too much stuff is gated behind bench hardswaps.
In Aria and Dawn of Sorrow you could just switch weapons and souls any time. Dawn gave you two presets to hardswap between.
Here? Not only the stupid ass fucking compass still takes an even more valuable charm slot, you cannot even swap crests mid exploration, and all crests beyond your basic ones have very objective downsides so why the fuck would i even bother with them if i'm only allowed one?
