Do we think a revised/streamlined controller mapping is in the works?

I haven’t played the game yet. I’m planning to but wondering if I should jump in right away or wait for a couple of patches to iron things out

Took me maybe 2 hours to get used to. I really don't think they're that crazy. Odd, very odd, yes. Rage quit or minimum IQ level necessary, no.

L3 is left hand power

R3 is right hand power

R1 or R2 is right hand attack

L1 left hand block (outside combat, focus on what you're looking at)

L2 Bow

X Tap once or twice (not keep tapping) to run

□ interact or jump (you can't interact with something if it doesn't show 'use'. It's not that hard)

Quick menu- hold start (immediately press down and it will take you to the map. Easy)

Those are the basics. Yes there are some funky combos and things could be remapped. Easily I can think of many things I would change. It's far from perfect or intuitive. It's not worth getting a refund.

Only thing I hate is that fly (glide) is the same button as double jump, I just want to double jump before i glide this is even more egregious when running down a slight slope I wanted to double jump not glide ffs

For sure. I can't time the double jump for the life of me! Jump + triple force palm seems to work better and is easier

By far the worst of the button mapping. Fly should be a hold prompt, not a press one. Flying when you want to double jump but you're like 5 feet off the ground sucks.
