The game will still align you to a grid, and you will still path to grid areas just like the original. On controller, there is no path-finding (due to tighter analog controls).

The original game only had so many sprites to render your rotation - so you'd have your character and they're rendered out at so many angles, and the monsters even less, but you could actually walk at greater directions - you have i think it was 64 different squares around you that you'd path to and you'd have feet sliding - we've increased that so that now there's more granularity - obviously its 3d so your character can still run straight.
But underneath the hood this is a game made back when the inspiration was tabletop games and so the game is a grid - so - it still respects that grid. On the controller will still allow you to move amounts because you push the stick a little bit, but you're still either in a run state or a walk state, stamina is still a thing, so once again all that game logic is all being driven by the old game. That hasn't changed.
Just like the frame rate conservatism they've even kept the isometric grid movement. This game is going to feel so authentic with the two combined. Like Gallerani said we'll be able to 'feel' it if it were done in any other way.

From looking at the Alpha and Beta, Controllers seem to be better in every way (especially the number of skills, switching to different skills, turning around/changing direction while moving) minus teleportation, inventory management and choosing the bodies to want to attack/explode/Revive.
