Also: They stated they'll add pop-up menus to certain things along with the mouse-over menu additions, I think the one reason it wasn't added to begin with was because..surprise people complain about having to use menus at all.
I didn't get around to playing TERA so I can't comment on the UI.

As far as controllers go, I agree that controller (ps3 when it's out) and PC users could (should) have seperate UI's and I believe they are going to do this.

As for myself, I don't use a controller... I'm playing the game on PC and prefer the mouse and keyboard. I know a lot of people do use controllers though, and they prefer that method. For myself, action bar is much more convenient than a popup menu would be.

I can def see how a popup menu would be more useful for someone on a controller... but don't try to have them eliminate the action bar, just suggest they work on another UI for controller users.


note: still groggy from waking up.. hope this is understandable
