If a rework forces people to change their playing habits, then its a good rework. Some people will jump to other thing and other peeps will go play the reworked stuff.
A never ending cycle of changes is what keeps online games alive.
I love new DRK, its the faster version of 4.0 PLD with some WAR flavour.
Other games don't have 17 different jobs with more incoming and most mmo they have a few jobs with different skill trees so ppl can pick what they want, FFXIV is not like that and every job feels unique and have a personal play style evolving that play style with every expansion except DRK since now for some reason have to be a copy of WAR.

If DRK flow and personal style was good in the past why change it at all? It have problems like the rest of the jobs in the game for sure but most ppl claim HW was and is still the best version of the job with is everything what we love and is not anymore so this rework was unjustified and the backslash from the old mains is well deserved.
