Yep, just learned it supports controllers and so put in 5ish hours atop my previous 3, getting it pretty well now. As mentioned there are a lot of combos to press; swapping from hammer menu to club/shield as you're being hit from behind, reequipping shield every time after using bow, etc.

But I've not encountered any of the issues with aiming I hear about, I tend to aim far better with a controller (decades of controller FPS play long after abandoning ms/kb FPS play), nor in the building aspect. My XBox One controller is kept new and protected, thus the sticks are tight and responsive so getting that pixel perfect placement isn't an issue.

Plus no, carpal tunnel, obv.
