PC UI Complaints
So, just a couple of small gripes about the PC UI. Some of these might get changed for release but we'll see.

1) It is not very clear how to quit the game. Having a 'QUIT TO DESKTOP' option in the options menu next to Quit Game would be nice. This seems more engineered around a console and it doesn't make a ton of sense when on a PC.

2) Following on that, when you get back to the intro menu, there is no indication that to quit the game you need to press the right mouse button. Either an on-screen tip, like it does for the main menu pressing left mouse button, or please let the escape key bring this menu up. This is on the PC, we press escape when we want to leave (or escape you might say) things.

3) Not currently seeing an option for unequip. Not seeing the ability to either remove items from the Item Ring, or remove accessories once equipped. Weapons, Armour, Shields etc I can see not having the option, but we will need the ability to unequip Accessories.

4) I'm guessing this is currently a bug, but in combat if I hit left and mouse button simultaneously, which I understand to be some sort of 'block' ability, it locks my character in that move and I need to quit and reload. This is annoying but I'm guessing a bug.

5) Changing key mappings. I have given up on this and instead just mapped my macros on my gaming mouse. When I tried to remap keyboard keys, I was getting conflicting mapping warnings even though they were between 'Combat' and 'Menu' key options. The conflicts seem to not make sense between context of when keys would be used.

Otherwise enjoying the demo and looking forward to playing the game. Big fan of Seiken Densetsu 3 from a SNES rom many years ago.
