Tollan players had different ways of controlling the game, but controller users had still been stopped by mouse-only aiming. For the developers, the immediate problem was a specific obstacle in play, rather than a grand new slogan for the ecosystem.
Tollan released full controller support and changed two abilities that previously required mouse aiming so players could use an analog stick. A player accustomed to a controller decided to try those abilities again, first checking whether switching between them felt natural in play. That gave the narrator a precise way to describe what 'controller support' now changed.
The update gave players more choice in how they controlled the game, a concrete change of the kind appearing across the ecosystem. Controller players would judge the feel in actual matches, and the developers still had room to refine it. The release alone could not show how many new players it might attract.
