Controls not terrible. They feel annoying at first coz u not used to play games like crimson desert but they feel fine once after u play for long time.
These 2 reviews best. Sums up everything perfectly.
I suggest wait few weeks. Let em patch some stuff then try it.
First few hours boring n slow.
It picks after 4-5 hours once u get flying ability and get special powers n all.
It requires patience and controls are annoying at start but once u get used to it then its feel fine.
Its lot like Dragon's Dogma and Monster hunter. If u dont like those games then you might not like it.
If you on console then base machines graphic look OK. Play it on balance or performance.
Game shines on PC and PS5 Pro
