Just curious... do the people making claims about farming easy content being a "challenge" consider Farmville hardcore or challenging? There are lots of social app games that use this mechanic... It's not the kind of "challenge" I would expect from a first class subscription based MMORPG.

Or is this really some kind of "wax on" "wax off" lesson they are teaching players that will prime them to learn the ultimate and super impressive methods of gaming? Maybe they are making us carry buckets of water now... but will eventually show us the five point palm exploding heart technique~!

Or not. But it would be cool if they did.
