Well that's how poe2 is usually described, i personally have never played any of the souls game so i can't attest to the similarity. Poe2 is a lot more boss centric.

The dodge roll has its niche: avoid boss mechanics. You can spam it so it doesn't provide any movement advantage, i think it gives iframes on targeted attacks, but you can still get hit by AOEs. However, because you can't attack while rolling you want to avoid doing it unless you really need to.
