I HAVE VIRUSES! I HATE VIRUS MAKERS! I HATE THE PROBLEMS VIRUSES CAUSE TO DATABASES!
ANYway, lemme type up everything I did before...
I don't think you get what I was saying about Secret. It's ring system had 4 ring menus ALL at the same level. You press up or down to surf around the rings. The one you are on would go away and the new one would appear. It would stay in that ring even if you closed the menu and opened it back up. Rather than have a button on one ring so you had to go INTO the ring system to get to weapons or magic, it was all on the same tier. Don't mistake this for it remembering what button it was hovering over, it does that too. No, it'll stay in the same ring you last used. Since it's all on the same level, if you wanted to switch from weapons to magic, you wouldn't have to go "up" a level to get to the main ring and then go "down" into magic. You'd just navigate up or down to that ring. The 4 rings are items, magic, weapons, and configuration. I prefer that system to having all these rings hidden under one main ring. I will say that it's not that big a deal to me. I don't think it's as good, but I got used to it quickly enough, much quicker than getting used to the reversed ring spin direction anyway. Why'd they have to mess with that?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
