Spell Animations

[KiriA500]

I know that they're low level spells and they aren't supposed to be showy but even if you look at other games like FFXI for example.. even they're low level spells at least were kind of catchy to watch.

So, FFXI having rocks just fly out from underneath the mob is more "catchy to watch" than rocks appearing around you, and jetting toward the enemy?

Seriously, this community needs to take off the nostalgia goggles.

I myself like the new spell effects looks more...believeable

OK. Personally i think this thread is ridiculous. There's just no pleasing some people. Casting in 1.0 was all the same and it wasnt bad. Frankly i think more people would complain if all spells had different animations, that would end up looking weird when a mage keeps doing something different every time. I think the new generic animation is cooler and the added touch of simply changing the color depending on the type of spell is the perfect finish. I absolutely loved the casting in the alpha video and the Spell interupt animation...... <3 <3 <3.

Stop being so nitpicky. People are looking to complain about every single thing about alpha.
