When are you going to make crafters and gatherers into real classes, for real?

A Tale in the desert. No combat, only crafting.

that...uhh...what...I'm speechless..how is that "fun?" I don't consider that a real game...that's just...horrible...but thanks for the heads up.

OP, you are welcome to go play that...."game," but FFXIV will HOPEFULLY never be "Final Fantasy Crafting Edition: Online"

They shouldn't make the crafting classes "real", viable classes because it leads to mediocre content. As is evidenced by the starting combat scene, the combat missions for the city storylines, etc.

Crafters and gatherers should be able to build shops or something.

We don't want the same content diluted to be accessible to both disciplines, we want different avenues of content which is relevant to each class.

why the hell would anyone want to be a battle weaver?? their just crafting or collecting classes should stay that way.

[Claudus]

Oh well if that is the case I guess I won't be paying any subs for this game.

Can i have your stuff?

Because anyone who play MMORPG must be blood-thirsty and only want to kill anything on sight in every way possible? Not really. Funny how people always want one single absolute way, is there no common ground in-between? Oh and starting combat scene should be hard, kill you twenty seven times before you are able to figure out the control, like Witcher 2!

no..not at all games have to have blood thirsty combat! But...a game based solely on crafting and trading is just.....wow...there needs to be a little bit of combat in there...just some..and it doesn't need to be gory....like..trade-ship battles or something...Otherwise, it is Farmville 2.0 in 3D!

Having to create double content to cater for combat and non-combat folks is going to lead to mediocre content.

And you're saying FFXIV doesn't have combat? Weird. FYI, don't ditch either A Tale in the Desert or Farmville, cause they happens to be more successful than FFXIV right now, with ATITD as an indie, and Farmville just happens to rack in the $$ several times FFXIV.
