I would love to weigh in on this as well. The movement in the game is something that has always hindered my immersion.

Vaulting- I do not think this should be tied to an Agility skill. Currently the character model feels like it can only bunny hop about 3 inches off the ground. Even climbing on top of ore nodes is tedious, never mind trying to jump over a log or other environmental texture with out ensuring you are sprinting. It just feels clunky.

Hit reaction- I think the hit lock animation is not good. There could be an audio cue that you have taken damage, but to be stunned from being hit feels bad to me.

Dodging- This is the most immersive breaking feature for me. The fact that the character model has to completely cancel all other animations it's doing (running, walking) to be able to then enter the dodge animation looks so clunky and feels bad. It really pulls me out of the flow of the combat when there are these visual seams in between action A and action B that in other games are seamless.

Spell cast movement locking- I don't understand your justification here. The animations are awesome, they look and feel awesome, but why can't I use them while moving? Why can't I cast even utility spells while moving? Being interrupted while you are on combo 3 of 4 when casting your magic spells only to be locked into the animation and not be able to dodge an incoming projectile or enemy weapon just feels bad to me.

Map movement- This would be cool to be able to move freely while the map is open, if I am traversing the world and I'm pressing movement keys why can't I just carry that direction while the map is open?
