Honestly, the new battle engine has really done anything BUT making the battle with a "Wow" factor...

Battles are now supremely slow-paced and boring, with the hideous problem of the "anti-blobbing clipping" and the nearly total lack of any kinetic energy in the game.

Hard to see any "epic" or "wow" part in this. Animations are great and smooths but completely devoid of any energy, violence or the like.

Bleh :-/
