Can't we use keyboard in combat anymore or am I just missing something?
Keyboard controls seem fucked in general.
You can't use space to pass through doors or open boxes, despite the prompt to do so.
You have to use the mouse.
The controls for the cards are kinda shit too. You mouse over them and they expand and get larger, but the area that denotes whether you're 'hovering over them' doesn't change, so they get larger and smaller from you moving your mouse around, without actually leaving the card itself.
Also, a lot of cards say things like "2-4 (incomprehensible symbol)" or "On hit, (yellow symbol) daze" but it doesn't tell you what they actually
do.
Ideally you would mouse over the text on the card and it would bring up a little tooltip telling you what you're looking at, but at the moment you can barely even mouse over the cards themselves, much less individual words.
UI aside, I've played for about five minutes now and I'm really feeling the limited options in battle.
You can't choose when to restore your health, or which attack you want to use. It makes the game feel a lot more rng based.
I wasn't very happy when it was first mentioned that you'd be swapping to a card system, and what I've played so far only makes me more convinced I was right.
I'm gonna keep playing and give it a chance regardless, but it seems very limited.
Edit: I do like how you learn new moves from your enemies. Feels more... worked into the setting? Than just finding cards in chests or something.
Hoping for a later scene where Saria learns lewd moves like this.
Not just the standard lewd combat stuff, but... she sees some guy fucking a whore in an alley or something and learns a new technique from it?
Something like how you choose your weak-point in the prologue, where something Saria sees stays with her.
