The problem is they want classes where average people can play and be good enough to clear content meanwhile not seem so complicated they are off putting or scare people to play but also have a semi high ceiling for people to master. Will this ever be achieved no, you'll always cater more than one side or the other and when it caters more than one side you have the other people hating, if it's too easy the people that want you know a higher skill cap that want to struggle and learn a class and master it complaining that it's boring for them but then if you make it too complicated you have a class you put in the game that few will learn how to play effectively and I'll be very scary to try out for new players or new to the genre. In the end I think they should not worry about trying to do that with every class because it's impossible and just have classes that kind of fit each roll like tanks for example have the warrior be fairly simple easy class pretty basic to pick up and then just go up in difficulty for each one making the skill ceiling higher, and people like choose warrior and then complain about the simplicity it's like yes it's meant to be simple there's these other class if you want to challenge yourself more to learn and master that take more time to develop. However in truth if they did that most gamers would choose the path of least resistance and play whatever is easiest then complain about it being easy and simplistic despite other options lol.
