So... It looks like they're trying, but from the TOUCH of gameplay this video shows I'm thinking their magic system is still WAY broken.

I still saw the rediculous charging up mechanic in use. I literally can't think of a more horrible break in combat than to sit and channel a spell. It works in WoW but that's because they realize channeling and cast-times are a huge burden and they use it as such... Fable 3 makes unmitigated use of recockulous cast times and charges ups. I hate the spell combat in this game!
