This game came out for PC FIRST. (it should have had PC controls 1st, THEN adapted to PS3)
Some people dont LIKE gamepads (hence why I play PC games..)

I can go on if you want, but the simple fact is that this is currently a PC only MMO. So why do I have to buy EXTRA things to make it work? I understand the intent of compatibility for PS3, but you can save that argument for WHEN it gets released for PS3. Until then, it is NOT a PS3 title and the UI SHOULD be PC optimized.
Finally, someone sums up exactly how I feel on this issue.

If a PC-friendly UI is being held back by gamepad controller limitations, then I think it's about time that dual UIs be developed.

I do not like gamepad controllers or the game setups that come with them. Using a kb/mouse allows for single-click actions. Besides, this is a PC game and I will not buy extra hardware to play it, considering I've already sunk hundreds of dollars worth of upgrades into my machine just to be able to run it. This is where I draw the line.

A PC game that cannot be played effectively with a keyboard and mouse is just broken. The funny thing is, Yoshi-P has said he realizes this, that since it's PC-only right now it needs to be optimized for PC. Why do people keep defending broken mechanics by suggesting we should just play with a gamepad when the devs don't even accept that excuse?
