its gonna be like actual fighting and stuff instead of "cast this spell... wait to recover... cast this spell now... wait... wait... wait... cast this spell... wait..."?

Yea! Its not turned based and such. It sounds like a game thats sort of like: Easy to learn hard to master. KInda like a button masher, but any skilled player would own a masher

Although, some skills may have to recharge and stuff. And thats just to keep people from spamming them, and to make it fair.

most MMO games make me sad to look at them, but this one intrigues me (but I highly doubt I'll ever see it again)

I'd rather play WoW...

An all fighter class game.... Well it's somewhat original. The graphics do look nice, and it have a very fluid flowing environment. I'd just like to know more about the story or game play, cause you can have all the best graphics in the world, but if no interesting story-line or enjoyable game-play... Count me out.

Agreed, spark. I hope its not a point and click. (You do see a mouse cursor in the video, but it looks like the character was looking far ahead, as the camera zoomed into the distance, so maybe the cursor is for some type of puzzle, or camera mode.)

It doesnt seem to be a point and click, as the movement is WAY to fluid. Like look at the running, attacking, and running on walls/trees. Way to fluid. And I doubt, the running on trees part would be automated, as it still looks too fluid.

It reminds me of prince of persia but online, and with button mashing. (So like, WoW + Prince of Persia + DOA. xD)

I'm gonna pass, as the game seems like it would fall apart outside of PvP...
