A question for everybody. How do you feel about the change of responsiveness of the controls compared to Demon's Souls?

I have to say I got a bit disappointed as movement and combat doesn't feel as heavy anymore.
It's a drastic change. Demons Souls movement felt very slow and heavy (but was still very accurate and most of all it felt "right". I am a guy who praise KZ2 controls. I adore the controls of Demons Souls and KZ2, they're the best in gaming). While Dark Souls response is extremely quick and "light".

You can change camera sensitivy (right stick) from Options but unfortunately you can't lower the sensitivty of character movement (left stick) to try to mimic Demon's Souls. Hopefully I get used to it.

the only thing that i think has become faster is the enemy, i didnt feel any increase of speed with my character, if using the same type of armor and weapon like i did in dark souls. its almost the opposite, since my dodge has become slower. (have to unequip my shield at the moment, to get the most fluid roll lol)

 

btw, its so awesome that u can jump in dark souls xD

You can jump? I didn't realize that. How?

I played a lightly equipped character in Demons Souls and it still felt slow and heavy (and awesome) like I described. I have only played Cleric in Dark Souls, maybe I should try a knight but I dont think it will make a difference because they changed the responsiveness plain and simple,.
