o.O Overkill on the crafting Dumb down?

[Esk]

@ Geesus

Been here since beta.
I was talking about detailed ideas once they have some they want to move forward with, not just were gona change stuff.. Then poof here you go!
They have no idea what people were thinking and I doubt more then 10% thought anything alike when they answered that question at the time.
I was think I'd love to see the world more dark, sinister and hostile, with classic FF style content and weapons (FFV/VIII)..
I knew it wouldn't happen like that, but we needed changes and more so we needed content and a better direction.

I'm not a crafter really I find it to slow for my taste.
(and this change will do nothing to improve or change that at all)
But I don't want to see the game dumbed down to the point where the people i enjoy playing with that primarily craft are leaving.
(an they will most likely be leaving, as SE will probably go ahead with this)
And to them this isn't a small loss, its like the DoW/M being told you can use cross class skills, or we get only 1 class and have to go to a town to change classes.
