Interesting update, but as someone who struggled to use the equipment swapping system in past games, do we really need
eight slots? Ecclesia barely needed you to use the three it gave you...
These games often had issues in the sense that because they don't double down on needing particular drops and weapons, you can play them how you see fit. This often meant that if you needed a particular thing, be it using magic on a foe in PoR or a particular weapon in OoE, it was about one menu switch away. Bringing it up to eight seems particularly odd to me.
For the five of you that used all three setups in OoE, show yourself!
