i haven't ever played any MMO before this that let you run and cast (outside of instants). the only reason i'm not annoyed by that in this game is that i worry making us stand still to cast is bad because of the 3-4 second server delay.

because,
1. yes, just moving canceling spellcasting will make it easier to avoid eruptions and crap at ifrit- assuming the canceling is instant. if moving cancels but still triggers that slight action lock/delay like it does now, people are still gonna die

2. waiting for the server to recognize you've stopped moving so you can start casting again is going to be the death of a lot of people, and a very frustrating experience for healers. if they can make it work so server lag doesn't factor in somehow, great. but otherwise, for *this* game, it seems like a bad idea.

i hope they implement it well, but i'm skeptical.
all i am saying is that some games are slower than what this game is. yes, some games have a faster system. i am not disputing that.

what i am saying though is that events like darkhold that gives bonuses for moving through and not even fighting the mobs will become impossible to add. i wasn't saying it was a good or bad thing to not have those types of items again. i was just saying those type of things would become a thing of the past with the changes.
