Mastering the controls and understanding the UI are crucial for efficient gameplay. The game primarily uses the left analog stick for movement, the right analog stick for camera control (where applicable), and face buttons for interactions. The 'A' button (Nintendo Switch) or 'X' button (PlayStation) is typically used to confirm selections and interact with objects/NPCs. The 'B' button (Switch) or 'Circle' button (PlayStation) is for canceling or backing out of menus. The 'Y' button (Switch) or 'Triangle' button (PlayStation) often brings up the main menu or character screens. Pay attention to on-screen prompts, especially during battles, as they will guide you through unit deployment, ability usage, and tactical decisions. The minimap, located in the corner of your screen, shows your current location, objectives, and nearby points of interest. Resource indicators, such as gold and renown, are usually displayed at the top of the screen.
