I think you're asking if it's turn-based? The standard attack button is R1. It's an action game, so no, you don't scroll through menus. If someone told you this was a JRPG and left it at that, they've misled you, though they didn't lie.

R1? That's odd, for what are the triangle/circle/X/square for?

X is context-sensitive, much like the A button in Zelda games. You press it to open doors, climb ladders, read signs, talk to people, etc.

Tap circle to dodge roll (like a Monster Hunter roll), hold circle to sprint.

Square uses the currently selected item, like a health potion. You can equip up to 5 items for quick access, and scroll through them with the d-pad.

Triangle switches between holding your weapon in one hand or with both hands. With both hands, you do more damage, but your shield will be unavailable.

R1 is for weak attacks, R2 is for strong attacks. L1 is block, L2 is parry.
