I've heard that somewhat stops once you get a certain ability that gives you a more reliable way to kill sans-weapons, but I never got that ability, I didn't have the weapons to survive the enemies the game kept throwing at me.
Oh, and I remember the controls feeling a little unusual even for a gamepad setup. I can't remember much now, but X(?) being jump threw me off, I'm so used to playing Devil May Cry.
