I love how when i see my E starting to cast some huge spell, he looks like he is really charging some crap up. He starts to float, his hands sometimes glow depending on the spell and then i see him direct the attack......

and what makes me sad is that some of the most powerful attacks in the game for an E or N look terribly pathetic. meteor shower is like a 6 polygon blob that lands on the ground and leaves a pathetic and extremely quickly disappearing dust cloud. i just want to be able to FEEL the power of those crazy spells.

the game has been out for long enough that people can afford technology that can run this stuff too. i understand why it was like this at first, but i think its time for an update on some of these spells.

So many threads on this crap already, some people just dont realize that GW is not that kind of game. Its not like one 1337 world-changing skill wins the game for you and blah blah if you want that kind of bs go play wow or something.

So what if the skill animations are crappy? Who friggin cares? You want more lag? Personally I'd have less lag over detailed animation. What do you want them to do for skills like meteor shower? Make a giant-ass meteor fall that fills up half the screen and leaves a huge crater in the ground?

Thats just stupid. Do you think graphics technology is so much more advanced today than it was the day GW was released? ITs only been like a yr and a half... Obviously if they didnt put it in the beginning, they wouldnt waste their time to make more lag and do it now.
