I am not sure what the OP is talking about? While I am shocked we don't have an option to get "Options" when we start a game, but as soon as the game starts go to Menu, then choose "options". I hate the Y not being inverted, so I was able to inver the Y Axis. Not sure where the looking around the left is coming from? I am a lefty and always used the default setting for Morrowind, Oblivon and Skyrim Except for the Y-Axsis.
You can even remap the controller if you want, that I see but never tired, so not sure what the complaint is about.
