I don't think he's referring to "fidelity" here, but rather that they simplified the controls, probably having buttons that are multi-bound depending on context.
As opposed to like 100 individually bindable actions, you're going to end up with weapon an equipment wheels... that type of thing.

I think it's both. He says "interface and gameplay finickiness." Interface sounds like buttons and control mapping, but finickiness sounds like turn speed and aim.

I think he's equating "finickiness" with the hunt for "what key does this?" which kind of goes hand in hand with the genre on PC at the moment.
Wants it to be more "natural" in the sense that a CoD player could hop on the sticks without having to learn that many new things.
I could be wrong of course, but that's how it read to me.

Just maybe the ugliest game I've ever seen.

Aim ASSist will be strong with this one.
