Perform: what are your initial thoughts?

• The lag between clicking/pressing a note and hearing the actual note is messing with my head. Badly. (FYI I play on a VPN with stable 40ms ping.) Client-side notes should play immediately regardless of network conditions.
• If using mouse click: simply not quick enough. Also error-prone. This is when I wish my monitor was a touch screen.
• If using keybinds: interferes with normal gameplay keybinds. Can hud layouts also save keybinds so we can get different keybinding configuration on different hud layouts?
• Actual note names on icons would help a tonne more than color gradients which look nice but are absolutely useless.
• No macro control: disappointing, but I can understand the reasons. It acts as a barrier of entry to avoid everyone copy-pasting tunes and playing it everywhere.

After messing around with it for a while, I found that when I try to click different notes in quick succession, I can actually bloody move the hotbars while not in HUD Layout mode. WTF...It's happened three times now, they'll move just a little to go out of alignment and force me to go back to HUD Layout to move them back.

I'm afraid the conclusion is that they didn't test this extensively with real music. They probably didn't even give it to Soken and ask him to try performing some of the FF music with this. This feels like alpha software. :3
