Finally getting into this game, it's quite good in a lot of ways but the movement and combat just feels third rate after I recently beat Dark Souls again a couple of times. Geralt moves erratically and gets stuck on things more than he should in a game of this caliber.

Turn on alternative movement? Or do you think you're the first one with that opinion?

Actually... it really is

Maybe playing Ys and the like is why I find Dark Souls movement so janky.

Meh. I enjoy both for what they are, I don't expect the same qualities in both.

I still like and respect the game but it's odd that they make the most highly detailed open world rpg full of amazing quests and don't take the time to polish up the controls.

Dark souls is pretty janky too..

Also Witcher 3 is aiming for a different market, Witcher 3 is for everyone to enjoy, not just the highest skilled players.

I'm not really comparing the two games as a whole though. Just the character movement really, I knew the witcher wouldn't have as good of combat going in.

Part of the Witcher's difficulty comes from picking up things in tight places or crossing some barriers that just confuse Geralt and cause him to act strangley.

Breaking News; The Witcher 3 is about the story and the world, Dark Souls is about the combat. More at 10.

The world and atmosphere is a huge part of the Souls series though.
