In Guild Wars 1, if you played the mesmer, you needed to be able to interrupt a .5 or .75 second cast through reflex.

When there's a cluster of players in an area in Eve Online, even there has been complaint of severe lag. And the world of Eve Online is huge and assumingly non-linear.
In games where there will be expected clustering of players in an area, this is…
