Careful, guys, your sense of entitlement is hanging out. (He said the class discussion is on the way, it's on the way. Gathering/crafting is a HUGE issue on the Japanese boards and a lot of people here clearly feel strongly about it, so it's worth the time hearing his justifications for his design decisions and priorities, even if you don't agree with them.)

it isnt that we dont agree with his decissions, half of them are pretty good. its just that only about 10% of it is of any actual significance... not only right now, but from his posts wont be of any significance for quite some time.

He actually mentioned the reason for that. He wants to overhaul the remaining 2 crafter classes and food first before he overhauls all the gathering stuff. Furthermore lots of the changes can't be implemented till 2.0 because of the server change and the current server not sufficient enough to make the changes. He is giving people an update to make people feel its not forgotten, but also tell people where it is exactly on the totem poll of things to do. He is speaking more to the Japanese audience then to us as this has been a big issue on those boards. Think you guys are just getting impatient because you wanted to see the combat overhaul update today lol.

No significance to you, maybe. (I recognise that the subset of players who don't need convincing to play and pay until 2.0 might be small, also that the subset of NA players who actually want to know Yoshida's reasoning behind changing certain core concepts of the game might also be small, but I fall into both of them, and I've gotten a lot out of this post, even if I find myself thinking 'man, I hope this didn't delay the class adjustments post'. 2.0 is the game I'm eventually going to be playing, the game this game is eventually going to be, so any information about 2.0 is welcome to me.)
