Is the UI overhaul still a priority?

Also, I like not having my view distrupted by a big ass actionbar in the bottom-center of my screen all the time.

Obviously you haven played XI on a controller. It sucks to control but it sucks a lot less than XIV. At least in XI you can do everything you need to on a controller.

No wonder they pushed back the ps3 release. Something like this would NEVER pass Sony's quality assurance, not even the alpha phase.

Both Tera and Blade and Soul are designed to be played with control pads, the difference is they are optimised to be played with both/either.

FFXIV favours control pad and that is partly why we have the clunky mess of a UI we have now.

SE should have made this game with PC UI first and then ported it to the PS3 afterwards.

I also use a gamepad from time to time in this game but thats only because using a mouse and keyboard sometimes is so counter-intuitive.
