I don't like action combat, and it could very potentially stop me from playing

Got no clue what it even has for features. I'm following Ashes for its gameplay (mainly L2's pvp) and could not care less what combat will be. Even if they somehow go full action, I'll just get used to it.

But none of that matter because different people have different preferences. I've seen countless people say that WoW's combat is so fluiiiid and so respoooonsive, but to me it felt like utter shite. And I'm sure that a ton of people will puke from playing L2, but I love its controls and how it plays. Preferences.

Again though, it's just a preference. I'm sure there's enough people who highly dislike AA's or Rift's combat and we've got me right here who dislikes WoW's. And, from what I've seen of EQ2, it seems as active as L2, while still having planted combat animations. And to me planted animations also feel quite nice and fluid, mainly because animators probably had an easier time animating them and could make them look way more fluid than action games because it's easier to make one good animation instead of several directional animations (at least that's how it seems to me).

And if I understood rogue's gameplay correctly, it had linked abilities so those might've even been animated together to have more visual cohesion. Though I might be wrong in that assumption.

I've played a few of the recent mmos too. Still prefer L2's combat and most definitely its gameplay

That only because I disagree with you on fewer things than someone like Noaani

Waiting to see what they show. If it's f2p and available to me - definitely gonna at least try it. I'm 99% sure it's gonna be a p2w piece of shit, even if the game itself is semi-decent, so if it costs money - I ain't supporting that shit. It was supposed to be L3 back in the day (along with several other games) so I hope they manage to have a good game, but I really don't trust NCsoft to make a well-balanced non-p2w game.
