The only problem I’ve run into is my own muscle memory difference between the switch and deck layouts. The way they’ve done the radial menus, and especially the turn-based combat, make controller confusion much less of a factor. My thumb still gets confused between A and B more than. anything else, but BG is very forgiving.

As a point of reference Cyberpunk to be pretty tough in the real time parts. Stray is a bit more forgiving and had been my most played deck game before BG.

I can already tell I’m going to play this one through the end though.
