Basically what I'm saying is having hotbars full of cool abilities is only half the battle. There's a reason FPS's are succesful despite players only having basically 1 major ability (shoot). It's because moving around during combat is as much if not more appealing then having a multitude of attacks available to you.
Yes, absolutely. In the same vein as WoW I enjoy lots of movement in Guild Wars, where moving is half the fight. The MUST STAND STILL AND NOT FLINCH of EQ was not missed at all.
