I'm sure I’ll be flamed but this was a perfect opportunity for them to quell our worry that the animations will stay 'as is'. I think it's obvious now that they are going with what the wow/typical mmo player is used to and no longer want to keep the realistic animations we had.
For me it's a real immersion breaker and a shame.

I understand the animations aren’t important for a lot of players. It just seems a shame that we are losing ver 1.0's saving grace, It was one of the few things reviewers praised.
