    And the complaints aren't necessarily about adding more complexity into the game, but more about bringing back the complexity they stripped away anyway.

    If anything, it's alienation to the people who are already used to it. I don't think most people like the changes because it's been such a hot topic ever since the expansion came out.
    People complain about everything everyday since the beginning of the world and they will never stop.

    No matter what SE will do, there will be new party of users who will come to say their "Pah!". At the same time people who likes things or simply doesn't care and plays hovewer it's done tend to stay quiet because "Why say something if I like everything as it is?" mentality is common all over the world. Sooooo, no, just because some topic is hot doesn't mean that it represents what majority of players thinks. Let's take Male Viera thread, going away from actual gameplay. Is the topic hot? Oh yeah, it is - the main post even got 1800+ likes which barely happened on this forum (if happened before at all). Does it mean that majority cares? Nope, majority is okay either they do add them or not as long as they can play the game and wouldn't bother if this addition never happens because they don't lose anything. And I say it as somebody who is in "pro-Viera" camp.

    Every time I see complains about the game in let's say novice network - they're from same 3-5 people and are so repetitive that I'm having deja vu every time I open the chat, and on top of that some tend to start yapping if somebody dares to say that they like some job's gameplay in its new form which... doesn't attract more people to say positive things, to say the least. Same goes to every other source of opinion - there is a very high chance that you will see same nicknames in comment sections. It doesn't mean that this opinion isn't valid or is meaningless. It's just that it's not represetantive, because the real majority simply doesn't talk because they like things the way they are and don't bother themselves to go out of their way to say it.

    AST changes (as example)? Happened thanks to one minority asking for changes, just as any other job balancing change. Result? We see it on this forum - another minority is unhappy. Meanwhile, the majority just plays the game and enjoys their time in it. Also keep in mind that at least some part of the development team, including Yoshida, plays the game themselves, so they aren't blind to how things work in the final product.
