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.
