The UI for looting with a controller makes looting extremely easy. I don't think it needs to be made any easier than that.
Don't assume everyone can or even wants to use a controller. It would be wise to make a UI that is fun for everyone. give us choice, choice, and more choice. That way, one person's definition of fun doesn't dictate it to everyone else that doesn't agree.
You misunderstand. I'm simply saying that this feels like the ideal looting experience.
If they can provide a similar looting experience for keyboard and mouse, I believe that should be enough.
I think that
automatically looting everything in sight is when the game is starting to play itself. Later you'll be checking your inventory and you won't remember where you picked this stuff up because it just magically appeared in your inventory.
And you're going to be stuck back in the inventory-management sim when you start hitting your weight limits.
