GW2 videos seem to show that movement is even more floaty and combat is even more drawn out. Compare that to Diablo3 which easily communicates the impact of character skills through animation and sound.
Maybe the videos were alpha stage and this has been tightened up. Don't want to spend money on a pre-order just to find out that I hate the way the game plays :/

this was my thoughts in my brief time with the last beta weekend. the animations felt very disconnected with what was actually happening. couldn't get into the game at all
