Allow controllers to same attack feint using attack direction from movement input

they can't right now. Why? because fuck controllers I guess.
Same attack feinting on pc using attack direction from movement input requires you to remember your initial side, swing, hit the opposite movement input, swing again. I cannot do the same on stick after a few games on my deck, not even once, so I don't believe this is functional in any capacity.

I figured out the other way to same attack feint out of riposte and counter and it's so terrible that this is clearly a better option.

@deep glacier might be interested in this suggestion

ill try it - anything. Last attempt for TornB to add same-feints on contoller was back in 2022 patch 2.6: " To Feint from slash to alt slash for example, the inputs would be: RT (Slash)> L3 (Left Stick press, Alt attack) + RT (Slash)) "

i believe that change was backed out due to an overwhelming dislike of the added feature.

actually, I thought there would be an option in the menus to choose which way to same-feint, that way people could choose which one they prefer. just like "enable motion blur" or something like "enable L3 feinting". why go through the work and toss the feature out the window?

o yeah, and there was another way to same feint by just mashing an input quickly. so a sequence like press slash, pause .25 sec, press slash again would result in a same feint. and press slash, pause .5 sec, press slash again would be a combo (left slash to a right slash). something like "enable timed feinting" would be cool too.
