For me, the Z button is better for equiping. I much more prefer the R button to bring up my shield for defending myself. I liked the WW control scheme. They could just use the C-stick for a first person toggle again. But thats just my opinion.
Edit: Watch the trailer again. If you look closely, I think it is not an item on the R button when he is riding a horse, but a Japanese word.
finally, good thing, too. Obviously L is for shield...or maybe you can switch the defend buttons, as well..
Hmm, it does too bad i can't read japenese.
Maybe it says "Shield". lol. Also, notice when he's fighting, the A buttion flashes like in WW. I knew the parries were back but it's still cool.
I found the parries to be a bit more elevated than in WW. Still, what he did in WW is NOT what we in fencing call a parry. Parrying is when you block/hit your opponent's weapon away when he tries to attack you...just letting yous all know.
I know. I've been fencing for five years now.
Yay for fencers!!!!!
