    The only time moving while casting is somewhat vital is maybe in primals, but we can get passed that with different set ups. The rest of the time, you are usually away from the enemies standing in one spot.
    The problem is how enfeebles work, along with movement cancel. When do you ever not see a caster use the bind,nuke, sleep nuke strategy to solo? Maybe gravity nuke as well. There is alos kiting, this game doesn't allow you to do any of that if you wanted to be a solo caster.

    Personally I don't care for solo play. I just think not being able to cast and walk (not run) is stupid. Atleast making us go from running to walking instead of being in the same spot would make sense. You need to make sure you don't trip while trying to cast a spell. Walking you can't make that mistake as bad as running. This equals to immersion that alot of people want in the game.

    I can talk on my cellphone while playing monster hunter with a brokenish directional pad and still see where I am going. What the hell is so god damn difficult about walking and saying "Fira?" and concentrating?

    You can't compare real life to a game. It doesn't work like that. The people make this game see casting as a motionless action.
