Still a work-in-progress! The main thing is that we're still looking to double the number of items in the game so we need to give the player more options after each fight or they won't have very good odds of finding things that work together.
Maybe you could choose more in the beginning and it tapers off?
More at the beginning would be a great compromise. That way you could start your build and being more selective about items would make more sense.
That follows the previous natural progression of unlimited items. By floor 5 or so I've usually committed myself on a build and most items I don't pick up...just healing or synergy items for my build.
