I've been experiencing this bug since patch 1.8, I was wondering if anybody else had trouble with it too, or if it was just me.

A lot of the time when I attack with a melee weapon or shield, it won't show the actual attack; my guy just twitches and whatever I'm striking takes the damage instantly. The sound of it taking the attack is there, and my guy yelling is there, it just doesn't show anything and is completely instant.

Also, something that's probably related is when I sheathe my sword now, I don't really put it away, I just run around with it in my hand as if I did. At this point the neither the mouse buttons nor the button to take out my sword will respond at all.

Last, sometimes I'll randomly stop animating and go into the mannequin looking state, even when I'm riding a horse. All of these started happening at the same time and are bugs with animation, so I'm fairly certain they're connected.

Has anybody else experience this at all? And if so, can I fix it? It's happening on all of my characters.
