I think the main complaint is the concept of Hamlet and its requirements to just "open" the relic quest.
Exactly this.

The people who want a relic are most likely fine with dedicating 6 months to a year of their time to work towards it. However, the Hamlet system works in a manner that makes opening the actual quest nigh on impossible to someone who can't dedicate the majority of their day sitting slaving away at it.

People have jobs, education, loved ones and leisure activities. We know this because SE have the audacity to put a message on the login screen asking us not to forget them - and then introduces a system that means you basically have to.

To the people that have less or no commitment? Fine, they get their relics much faster, that's the way it should be. However, as it stands, most people are too disillusioned to even try.
