It just feels lazy to me, like the developer couldn't be bothered adjusting the UI for consoles so they copied the PC interface and bound the mouse cursor to a stick. Some games do both at the same time, having menues navigable both with buttons and a cursor, but usually that makes all menus unreliable and unprecise as hell.

You just said it: it's laziness.

Edit: since I can't respond to the person who replied, for some reason: Get off your high horse, and stop putting words on my mouth.

In this context, obviously everybody involved in the entire project counts as the "developers," including the literal developers, their managers, PMs, and the dipshits up top.

On the other hand, I would know because I'm a lazy developer/tech lead.

Lol laziness, typical Gamer™ response. Like the devs just sit back, relax and twiddle their fingers all day in the office. No it’s management who doesn’t give a fuck and don’t allot time and money to the devs to create a better UI. Because they rather have that money paid out as a bonus for themselves.
