Does Anyone Think Crafting is Too Slow?

[Abriael]

Funny thing is Yoshida is trying to make crafting more interactive and considering to remove the gauge, oh my... i wonder why? Could it be because crafting process is tedious and boring, could it be slow? hm... HMMMMMMM...

Ahem, yoshida is considering to remove the gauge only for crafts much under your level, basically having everyone using hasty hand automatically. 'cause you know, some people can't really understand how things work unless you slap it in their face, looks like.

if you think yoshida will turn FFXIV's crafting into a press one key and pray system, you are most definitely setting yourself up for disappointment.

I'm seriously amused by the fact that some people think that a system that includes absolutely no involvement (press one key and pray, then press the same key and pray for X million times) would be less tedious than one that at the very least involves a degree of strategy and active thinking.
But of course those would never admit the only true issue. That they want level 50 and profits to be handed to them (without even understanding that it would actually remove any profitability to the crafter game, the easier it is, the less it's profitable).
