Sorry, but crafting and gathering are going to remain as a vital part of this game - much more than in FFXI (even if scaled back from Tanaka's original plan)

I'd recommend you get used to the idea.
Look, when crafted gear dominates a game all it does is destroy the content with any drop items. That's usually the end game content. What is the point of a player working their ass off for a single item if the item they bought or crafted is already much better? There is a place for crafting, and if you look at my posts regarding ifrit dropping horn that is crafted into weapon, or addition of something similar to cursed gear in 11, you would then be able to remove your head from your ass and realize that i'm not against crafting, i'm against it being the most powerful class in the game. I want to see mat drops or combination of drop and crafted items, it's a good system, but most combat players, say fuck you uppity crafters, by the way, i'm sick of this fucking train wreck called 14.
