I have noticed a lot of attacks show an animation for them going "prone" then standing back up right away. EG: Eldritch blast that pushes them, the fall "prone" then stand up.

I wonder if this will just add to the confusion, they shouldn't play the prone animation otherwise it visually wont make any sense with the condition prone.

Oh yep I've seen this too. Does someone know what happens (in the game) when a creature falls and takes falling damage? RAW they're supposed to be prone, but I could see Larian coding it so that they get right back up...?

It seems like they've set conditions to overwrite entire turns, likely a legacy from DOS. Hopefully they plan on fixing these.

Frightened raw does not make you run away at all. Only the spell fear does that.

Frightened Condition:
-A frightened creature has disadvantage on ability checks and attack rolls while the source of its fear is within line of sight.
- The creature can't willingly move closer to the source of its fear.

Yep you're right. More evidence that Larian just copy pasted some conditions without implementing the actual 5e rules. Though tbh I'm fine with being forced to run away, it makes enough sense. But I do want my actions!
