Why punish players who just want to play DoL DoH?

[Calypsx]

I agree there should be an alternate way. In 1.0 you were even able to start the game as a DoL/DoH (Using stone throw to fight enemies in the opening cutscenes) and you could really stick to just that if you wanted.

I see nothing wrong with having multiple options for players who want to adventure how they like. I like fighting but I can understand where the crafters and gatherers are coming from.
