Seems to really get under your skin though as you feel the need to respond to it. It's funny to me to see people outraged over this.

Oh no, you have to grind to get a reward? You mean you enjoyed logging in on monday and then not logging back in for the rest of the week?
Oh no, you can't gather the best new materials in your un-melded gathering af?
Oh no, you can't get the master recipe book without crafting items for it?

All the people who have a hard time with the "grind" they placed into the game are the ones who will mmo hop anyways, once the content gets too hard for them it's off to easy mode in another game. Yes I agree grinds don't take any real skill, but you know what grinding away toward something keeps people logging in. Those who don't like it won't be logging in, and then SE will have to ask themselves if they want to retain the current player base, or if they want to add here's a relic in a day type of content they did to cater to casuals.

It's nice to have to set goals, and carry out objectives. Not everyone is going to be geared to the teeth by welfare handouts, not everyone will be fully geared in a day, a week, a month, six months. I like that. Too bad you don't because well it seems like the update is live, and that's the way they directed the current patch content. So yeah, maybe you will enjoy TESO or Wildstar while you wait for a new patch hoping for easy modes again.

I for one am really enjoying the game and look forward to this patch's content. Only bummer for me is medium sized houses only get two garden plots.
