Moving will be made to interrupt spellcasting at a point in time...

This isn't WoW. It's also not FFXI.

It wouldn't even matter if it was. It wouldn't change the fact that the system in place now is fun, and that the change proposed will be less fun.

That's all there is to it. We all know what's its like to stand in one place and cast. It's less fun than being able to move around while casting.

Hmm maybe they should allow casting and moving, as well as give me 15 second spell casts so i can run around while glowing and have fun! I can see it now...o the fun!!

fun? what about running to a safer position while casting? thast how i do it, not sure about you.
not only does it feel so much more fluid to start casting SS while im running to my group of leve mobs, but theres been so many times where ive been able to run away from mobs while casting- have the mobs dissengage- my spell then goes off - i then immediately go right back to fighting them.
its fluid, more fluid then not being able to do either of those.

also take into account the new MMOs that are coming out. both blade and soul and GW 2 have already been praised for their magic casting system by players and other DEVs. Both of those games allow you to not only charge cast while running but also complete the cast while still running.
the new market for MMOs is more action oriented. Yoshi has stated that he does want a strong level of competition to future games and has used these coming up games as examples in past player polls and in interviews.
