In XI, yes. You did have the Attack/Magic/etc. But really, did you actually play with this? Chance are, you probably didn't. You likley had macros for everything (I absolutely did) which if you think about it... looks ungodly similar to the action bar we have now. It has... 10 actions, and you can push a button and boom, it goes off. We also can use macros too...

If this was a turn-based game, I'd feel differently.

I get where you're coming from; I sorta feel the same way too. But, I don't think the OP is really trying to say that he wants the action bar replaced. He just wants the option to substitute the traditional menu style... Not to mention, we have to keep in mind that there are plenty of ppl out there, especially future ps3 players, that will not like this UI.

I agree that ppl probably didn't use the menu list much in XI, except to examine (/c) ppl; and maybe to do a ranged attack. But that still doesn't change the fact that the current one seems clumsy. There's lots of scrolling back and forth, up and down, button-smashing, and so on.
