I prefer the day/night thing being per quest, not on a cycle like it was in Tri. Like in Unite of Tri Ultimate. Having to swap hot and cool drinks every quest is not ideal, which is what you would have to do going to a desert.

I don't think we will see swimming again, definitly not in this game as it is a 4th gen one. I think capcom have realised they don't really have enough buttons to do swimming properly.
