Does not work with the arrows you got to access that menu on the left that lists all of the tomes
This doesn't appear to work on console. I can look at tier I tomes, but I'm unable to select more than two. I can however select more that two tier three tomes from the tome carousel - so it seems like a bug on console.

Can someone on console confirm that I'm not just a big dummy or tell me what I might be doing wrong? (Someone who plays console, please - PC master race need not apply :D )

I'm on console. Same. The Tome library doesn't allow me to select tomes, just look at them. I haven't tried multiple tier III yet.

Seems like the problem is that we can't choose a new tome from the library - we can only select what is on the tome carousel. I put a bug report in - thanks for confirming!

It seems like a relatively simple UI problem - there is no controller input for selecting a tome in the Tome Library when Tome selection is available. Let's hope this one gets a quick patch :)

Is the player even supposed to be able to open more than 2 level 1 tomes?
I think so. On PC you definitely can do it.

Nope. It's confirmed in the hotfix notes, it's an issue with the tome library when using a controller.
Original post said nothing about a controller...
To me still feels weird, playing a strategy game on a console... I know XCOM also came out there, but it must be cumbersome to scroll the map and click on things without a mouse.

Planetfall worked great. It's probably less efficient than mouse and keyboard but it's much more comfortable for me. I don't like to be hunched over a desk and I also find console to be a much smoother experience in general. The new nested tooltips pretty much cleared up my one gripe, that I couldn't easily hover over something to see a description.

I mean, sure, I understand if you have a console you'd not want to invest in a PC as well for just a few games. My half-brother also plays Planetfall on an XBox, though he says the combat controls are rather cumbersome there.
I have always been a PC gamer and to me it felt weird to see strategy games make it to consoles. For me it was the other way around, I got my half-brother's old XBox 360 mainly so I can play Skylanders games, since only the first of those ever got a PC release... :D

I do play some games on PC. I prefer civ on PC as compared to console. My buddy and I compared planetfall on his pc to my playstation and we both just prefered the console experience. Solaris on the other hand is a bit of a mess on console. I think it's just a credit to Triumph for making an excellent console version.
