Accessing Map
Can we do better than Start -> Down -> Right -> Right -> Right -> Right -> Right -> B to open the map? It should really be assigned its own button, but at the VERY least, let us press Left to reach the other side of the menu instead of the 5 Rights.

Sorry to complain about something seemingly so minor. I absolutely love the game so far, but this just drives me nuts.

Agreed. This is something that made sense back when the menu was always on the touch screen, but here it's a bit off.

Does the LB button do anything? Could use that. If not, Start -> Back would be a decent enough shortcut. Or setting the cursor to start on the map rather than the top left corner.

I believe LB is the magic attack button, the triggers have no commands assigned to them I believe.

LB is the backspin move. it's really only useful for speedrunning as it's a way to move faster in a backwards direction. honestly i thought it'd be removed from this version as its purpose is incredibly minute. and RB is the magic attack button.

I'm amazed someone can make enough sense of that map to actually want to use it...

No, it's also used to cancel attacks into a backdash. Of course it wasn't going to be removed. Even if speedrunning was its only use (Which is not) even then it would be important, as the game encourages speedrunning for certain endings.

I wish we could use the map with the triggers (LT, RT) and they're REALLY not used at all (Heck, even the right stick button is not used). Seriously, add a hotkey for the map.

Blame the DS for only having two shoulder buttons and not four.

Useless? I use it a lot. It's a bit odd but not THAT hard to make sense of.

of course, the DS also had a second screen which meant the map was permanently on display.

waste? I've got about 800+ of the bloody things and already had the Old Moneybags achievement.

Just need to find enough Jam to actually get them spent.
