Revert the spell casting animations!

Please revert the spell casting animations!

I can't play my caster characters anymore and I 'm leveling a warlock just for this stupid change. Shaman / Mage / Priest / Druid, please change them back to the original ones or provide us with the option to opt in to them or not.

Please :( these animations severely change how our characters look in combat. Many of us feel connected to them :/

I dunno I rather like the adition of new casting animations. Makes my chars feel less....... stiff.
Just give an option to select that allows us to use the original casting and meele animations like they did with the character models.

Before they made that option obsolete. It does not always work to go back to old char models. :/

It is good the way it is!
What? They look amazing. Why would you want the old animations?

no
Yes.
The new animations suck for many of us.
They should at least give an option to disable this crap.

I like the new animations, please don't revert them :<
I guess it is a good thing that all the people complaining about stuff like this will probably move away to the classic servers anyway
They should give us the option to use the old ones, just like the old models. The thing is, they removed the old models because they didn't want to put in more effort to give them the updated animations as well.

The game is 14 years old, many players are new, but also many are old. I played with the old animations for 3 years, I love them and hate the new ones.

Blizzard should have more respect and care more for what longer time players have to say.

E.G: Look at barrage and multi shot animations, you fire at things that aren't even there. Does a "MARKSMAN," do that? I don't think so. CLASS FANTASY ACHIEVED.

Barrage used to look so cool when it was just a rapid stream of arrows at one target. Now it looks like a bright yellow triangle on your screen for 3 seconds so I just refuse to use it anymore, despite it being my favourite hunter ability we have access to. Depressing
Can't speak for other class / race combinations but I think holy priest looks great.
I barely notice the animations on my gnomes. I don't think they are just going to revert the change some how and we already know that Blizzard doesn't do choices so maybe just try get used to it?

It is your opinion about holy priest, and I respect it. But anyway there might be the option, the choice. Give us it, Blizzard, please.
When did they change? Whats happend tell me
Only thing I dont like about the new animations is the crossing of their arms over their head.
I dislike my holy priest because there are too many sparkles and stars :)
I am not a huge fan of resto druid 'stance' in combat, it looks like I was about to punch someone in the face.
