Analog movement?

[thefloodhunter]

Just loaded it up, but noticed at the beginning that sora only seems to move 8 directions, instead of true analog movement with the analog stick. Was this always the case, and I just didn't remember it like that?

Using steam deck, default bindings, KH1FM.

I'd also like to figure this out, cuz I had the same issue on EGS and saw it's still the same here. Could have sworn it had full analog movement on the PS2 version.

I checked with the original game via PCSX2 and the movement in this appears to be faithful to how it originally was. On the PS2, both the analog sticks and the D-pad were pressure-sensitive, so many games allowed you to use either to control your character, obviously movement with a D-pad would only result in eight possible directions. In this game, it seems that 360 degrees of movement *are* possible, but only if you move the stick very subtly between angles, and even then I think it might just be a tweening animation and not truly free movement. Definitely threw me off when playing this for the first time since the 2000s.
