Although the controller support is appreciated, I don’t think the menu navigation on controller is well thought out. This is on an iPad, for the record.
To access the menu from the torchlight button (where mail is) you need to press AND hold the start button and navigate the menu via the virtual cursor which is on the right stick by default. That’s very cumbersome. Having an always on screen virtual cursor for navigation by itself is cumbersome and less intuitive than navigating menus via traditional “highlight” navigation of most console games.
Text boxes which require scrolling, such as item descriptions or the talent menus cannot be navigated exclusively with a controller and still require swiping on screen to see the rest of the text. This makes playing 100% exclusive on a controller impossible.
The combat controls feel good, so it’s not all bad. It’s just the UX navigating the UI needs more thought out into it.
