    Doesn't sound like they're putting a whole of effort out for us. I mean, its to be expected i suppose. The new gathering system is fine, thats not really what we're talking about. Its just hard when a group of us really loved something that just got swept aside because someone doesnt really give a shit about it.
    I guess we just interpret things differently. I take that sentence to mean that we're getting content for these classes over and above what we already have/know about. To me adding content means they are putting in effort. Unlike a lot of MMOs that never touch crafting/gathering after they've "balanced" them we're getting more stuff. Sure it won't be as much as the combat classes get, but that's because the combat classes have always been and always will be the main focus of any game. Until we know what all the content is, I can't see being told we're getting content as something to be disappointed about.

    Ya true, we have no idea what any of what this really means. The wording just sounds like "more Hamlet" to me, but i'd be more than happy to be wrong lol.

    For what it's worth Hamlet was pretty revolutionary even if it had the most godawful execution.
    "Large-scale conflict content where crafter/gatherer has an active role" is definitely not a thing I think I ever saw in an MMO (and perhaps it might have existed in EVE? I don't know much about that arcane game).

    "A much improved Hamlet" would be great

    You know, it might be heresy, but I actually enjoyed Hamlet. My friend and I, both gatherers, were like a well-oiled machine. We could keep the debuffs on and then some, no sweat.

    Not that it was terribly difficult, but I got my Hamlet Fisher's Hat, so in the end I guess I "won."
