There was no control involved, because you used it once at the start of the fight and that's it. More like NIN's Huton.

Still sucks to lose it, honestly, because it didn't require any effort to keep up and it looked cool. I wouldn't want NIN to lose Huton for the same reason.
Well, yes, Kaiten is a much more involved skill. As a previous Samurai as my main DPS I don't know the exact particulars of other classes skills. Just feels like dumbing down in general. As you said, comparable to Huton. I'm not super knowledgable in all the classes but it definitely feels like dumbing down and homogenization across the board.
