It's hard to call it "the feeling of pen on paper", but it's not slippery. You can also get different nibs for the pen (at least they give you a few with Intuos pro, but I bet you can buy them separately) to have different experience. If you have a Wacom center somewhere not far from you, you can try it out there! It's really comfy as far as drawing on a monitor can be, imo.
