That’s part of how they adapted it. There aren’t a lot of spells that require pinpoint precision, and those that do are pretty smartly autotargeted. The only issues I’ve had are trying to teleport to a specific spot with some of the escape movement, but it’s mainly a matter of getting used to it. The stick rolling takes up a lot of that slack, by the way. Once you get used to that roll on the right stick, you’ll miss it if you go back to the PC version!
But, really, it comes down to what you’re used to. Personally, I find the grids and teensy icons more torturous than the wheel now that I’m used to the wheel. What’s killing me now is Nintendo’s back-asswards fucking button inversion from the way every other civilized country does contoller buttons! Damn you, Nintendooooo!
