But that doesn't mean that they should play the same.

A lot of the complaints are not unique to this expansion. The "1-2-3" claim applies to Heavensward and Stormblood as well. This is not a rotational job. You can't blindly follow a list of button presses to do well. Never could, never should. If you wanted to play DRK as a rotational job, well: You can't take back what was never yours to begin with.
I agree with you about this a lot of people complaining dont even play DRK now because new shiney. I love how DRK is now. Us it HW and SB DRK? By no means is it the mundain boring ass 1 threat rotation then DA spam it once was nope but thats good i like how it is now.

At first i hated how they gutted so many skills but now I love how it plays. And TBN is an absolute monster of a tool in DRKs arsenal the people complaining about TBN being bad use it wrong or only look at trash pulls. When most if not all tank cds are all garbage even in trash pulls. A good DRK knows how to spread out its CD's in tandum with TBN making it still the single best tool for mitigation.
