First: maybe it's my imagination, but I have been experiencing an easier time getting around in this game. Maybe I'm just getting more used to the controls, I don't know, but it does seem like gameplay is a bit smoother.
One thing that is still a bit of a pain, though, is that sometimes my character will get "hung up" on certain objects in the environment, especially the sides of ramps or other elevated objects. Typically when my character encounters an obstacle, some sort of computer magic kicks in, and the game makes him/her automatically move around it. With some objects, though, this doesn't work and the character will treat it as though the object doesn't exist and continue trying to walk through it, which basically means the character sort of gets stuck on the wall, object, or whatever unless I really try hard to stay away from it.
