Cursor vs Tradition Console Navigation (Destiny)

The scenario you describe where you click 10+ times--that's a bad user experience, especially when it has to be repeated over and over.

...which is exactly the case with the 'go to destination' launch screen. It's one of those things where a particular solution can work very well in some contexts but not so well in others. I don't think it would have killed them to have 'press A to launch' on that particular screen.
