So they did away with the huge talent tress because having an illusion of choice was just bad game design.
IMO this argument is horrible. If we don't want to have an illusion of choice, they should just give us 1 button that executes our rotation - because choosing which order to press buttons is also an illusion of choice. Why even have secondary stats or primary ones for that matter. There should be 0 stats, and no gear - just an ilvl that you can obtain. 1 ilvl, 1 skill, because having more is just an illusion anyway.

Having 0 choice in your build is horrible game design in an RPG, and no other RPG does this. All of the great RPGs (MMO and single alike) give you customization. Regardless, I realize it's not coming here and I'll ultimately quit this game because of it.

That doesn't negate the fact that the OP suggestion doesn't tackle the request at all.
