I tried going strength on my first run and ended up going with a katana dex build. Months later I picked up STR again and yeah, they're a LOT better now. You're in for a treat. I think they made ultra greatswords swing faster by like 30%+ since release.

That's good to hear. I remember not really enjoying the end game much, because a lot of bosses were so fast that they kind of required you to trade hits because yours were so slow with Greatswords and Ultragreatswords. Malenia especially felt more annoying than challenging (especially coming off of DS3 where most of the fast-paced bosses could still be fought hitless with big weapons).
