Yes, I think an answer to that is quite reasonable.
When I first played this game , you may laugh, but I spent a very long time puzzling how to save a game. I kept double-clicking and pressing on the save game slot, and testing to find it hadn't worked. Didn't occur to me to click the disk icon again for a long time - after all, I had already used that one to say "I want to save a game".

A lot of this interface is OK once you've worked it out, but not at all intuitive to begin with. There are some things where games designers would do well to stick with established standards - and in RPG you usually equip items to use them, as also there are well established Windows standards for saving files.
