So is the Oni back to how he was before?

The Oni: Removed turn speed limitation on Demon Strike. Implemented a hard cap on the turn angle during Demon Strike.
From the patch notes.

No, but it's better than what he was previously...
I believe you can now turn faster during demon strike but its capped at 90 degrees, I.e. full turn left or right. I'm hoping console turn speed is set fast.
Not quite. Before there was no conceivable limit. The faster you whipped your mouse across the room, the further you would flick. Now there's a hard limit of 90 degrees, but you have full control during it.
Short version is that now you can flick a little further, and it'll feel much better.
Thanks for the answer Peanits, will console players really feel anything different? Or is it basically back to how it was for consoles because they can't turn any faster by whipping their mouse, and are basically stuck at how far their analog sticks move.
I believe you'll now have an easier time turning the full 90 degrees, whereas before you wouldn't be able to since your sensitivity was reduced during the attack previously.
You make it sound like people were throwing their mouse and hitting the neighbors cat to get a hit. If thats the case...the survivors have plenty of time to recover since you now have to take time to walk next door to apologize and retrieve your mouse.
That's great news, couldn't get many downs with how it was before on ps4.
It's okay, that's why you get an electric reel like you'd have on a fishing rod to pull it back in quickly.
