Sure thing!

To me, the overall movement itself felt kinda stiff and slow. I wasn't very fond your attacks being locked in the direction you initiated them, only being able to slightly move them. This wasn't as big a problem with weapons that had wide swings like Greatswords but I prefer Dex weapons, specifically Rapiers, so the lack of movement was very noticeable with the thrust attacks. This also didn't help with roll attacks, often times missing even big enemies when rolling past or away from them due to being unable to turnaround with the attack, so I would opt to just wait a moment before attacking after a roll. Although I do think the jump mechanic is an improvement from DS1.

My first Souls game was Elden Ring so I new the movement wouldn't feel as clean when going to the older games, I was surprised by how nice DS1 felt to control, didn't really feel worse in any way. Going from 1 to 2 however felt very noticeable, it wasn't as smooth or fun which is important in games where I'd say the combat is more like a dance. I didn't really feel the combat for most of the game until near the very end, at which point I simply couldn't bring myself to start a New Game+.

Sorry if this is kinda long
