Dont let the common trolls on forums fool you pretty much EVERY crafter a know and have talked to ingame is retiring from crafting or taking a break from xiv because of these changes.

If anything I would say the opposite and not to let the common trolls like himself spamming crafting hate threads filled with hyperbolic nonsense fool others. On your other point every crafter I know in game is still crafting as normal, additionally more people I know have started crafting not less too. I guess every crafter I know in game is more intelligent and capable of taking a step back, rationalize the changes and have a firmer grasp on the realities of crafting and the impact of those changes...combined with the common sense understanding that caps will slowly be raised, material costs will drop as always and new recipes will also get added over time instead of falling prey to the melodramatic bullshit spread on here by around by some individuals.

In the meantime the ones I know continue to make vast amounts of gil from crafting, making even more from gathering and selling to the increased amount of people crafting now and they enjoy it still despite the added complexity/depth to the classes. Thankfully SE are not generally inclined to fall victim to the extreme dramatization tactics some people here are using in their arguments, their threads and their posts and they will just make 'minor' changes to the system as they always have when new content/systems come out/get added to the game post-release. SE will more than likely keep an eye on the in game activities of players and listening more to the rational and reasonable comments on the system rather than the hyperbolic and melodramatic nonsense some people are spewing forth on here.
