Not sure about you, but if people in this game can just run by and spam spells and weaponskills without having to stop moving im going to lose my fucking mind. This is a Final Fantasy game, this isn't Quake or some FPS. Please give me real believable animations, this is 2013! I don't want some cheap fucking game!
