Guys i'm serious lol. Try the face buttons to aim, don't even bother with the stylus or CPP. It's literally not that difficult. Single player is fine and i'm pretty damn good in multiplayer. I feel like people are ignoring the face button to aim option. It's MUCH more comfortable than using the stylus, and no need for the CPP.
The melee attacks in multiplayer have a pretty decent dash range (at least claws do) so you only need to face in the general direction of the opponent and you dash right towards them. I primarily use staffs, and the one I use doesn't home in AT ALL. I have to be accurate if I hope to hit anyone, and even with a high precision weapon, I prefer, and do great with the face buttons.
