Hi Manu, as you requested, here's some feedback from the controller usage in the latest version.
I'll only talk about the settings menu and training club, I haven't played the world tour for a while nor the tennis school, so maybe later I can talk about them. Regarding the mod managment I understand that's an external plugin so no point in mentioning that.
Settings:
Would be nice to be able to iterate across the sections with L1/R1 as navigation would be easier IMO, otherwise you have to go all the way up to change sections. I also think (and this applies everywhere in the game) that the settings that have multiple options should have a dropdown instead of a list (For example the Resolutions setting has a lot of possible resolutions), that way when you click on a setting you could select the option instead of having to iterate across all the options. It's a super nice addition all the visual clues for selecting an option, lower a value and return, however I still struggle with that scheme. For me, A is move forward, B is backwards and start/select to go to previous menu, but this is super subjective and the visual clues really help.
Training club:
Before starting with this, I must add that I really like the squares to separate each section, it's easier to navigate in the screen. I find a bit complicated to use the controller to select the court, specially to navigate on the list of stadiums, as mods will add a lot of stadiums, it's complicated to navigate that list as you have to move the cursor to the edge of the stadium list and move manually. To solve this I'd add the possibility to move that list with L1/R1 or even better with the right stick of the controller.
Character Sheets
This is the main menu where I struggle with the controller because it takes so long to navigate across all the options, it's just faster to use the mouse today. To begin with, to get to the player's list you have to scroll all the way to the left down, and you have to navigate across all the stats, so it takes some time to get to list. And again, to navigate that list you have to move 1 by 1, and if you have a second screen you have to move to the edge again.
I don't have an answer for all the difficulties I experience with navigation, I just know that for some tasks it's faster to use the mouse instead of the controller. Maybe you can make the pointer controllable with the controller as the mouse? Or change the menus a little?
I'm a season player of the game, so I know where all the menus and settings are, how to load players from the world tour and all the little tricks, however I think the games needs to make it easier for a newcomer to select 2 or 4 players, a stadium and just play, getting to that point takes a lot of steps IMO and in some parts it's easier to use the mouse.
Please don't take this the wrong way, I love this game, I'm just trying to give a constructive feedback to improve this area in particular of the game.
