While I’ve had a couple moments of confusion with bringing up a particular menu or accidentally attacking the ground instead of moving during combat, the controller support feels well implemented and has become my preferred way to play. Character and camera control is handled by the left and right sticks, respectively, while the d-pad is reserved for certain special commands, such as attacking the ground and enabling “sneak” mode. Pressing the right trigger brings up a radial menu of all the various, pertinent in-game menus, i.e., inventory, equipment, quest log, and character sheet, while the left trigger allows you to switch characters. While Divinity isn’t as bad as that, playing the game with a controller just feels a bit better.

No doubt some of that is due to a lack of interest of having to memorize 20 different keyboard shortcuts, a concept that does demur some folks (understandably) from getting into PC gaming. Despite growing up on PC games, I find myself wanting to play games more and more using a controller. The other feature that makes the game more accessible is the added controller support. This is still an open-world game, after all, that gives you almost absolute freedom to go anywhere and interact with anything, so the tips aren’t going to be able to cover everything.
These tips aren’t going to give you all the answers, but they at least point you in the right direction enough to make it a bit clearer why you would want to pick up certain items and combine them. That help is now in the Enhanced Edition with tutorial tips, which pop-up on the screen within the appropriate context. While you could eventually suss everything out with enough time spent experimenting and saving before every battle, a little bit of help would have gone a long way. Previously, the game had a bit of a barrier to entry players with previous cRPG experience so they were (at least conceptually) familiar with the game’s crafting, equipment, levelling, and combat system had a far easier time than those that didn’t. For any newcomers, those improvements are nice and may make the game more appealing, but the real hook now is the game’s accessibility.
