Why do the weapon icons need to be constantly present on the Dpad/HUD? Isn't it a waste of screen estate and just annoying to look at? Surely if I set say a Dragoon Lance on Down, and say a 2H sword on Up, I'll remember and press them accordingly? Maybe only flash up briefly when switching but otherwise there's no reason for them to be there.
It's not as if Tales or Ys show you what skills and abilties you have assigned to which button on screen during battle. Or shooters/action games always show which weapon is assigned where. The former trusts the player to remember what they assigned and the latter briefly appears when switching. Otherwise the screen is not obscured.
