I keep telling to myself: "WTF???"
Please SE don't do that, it's way too simplified, and demands much more work than a better (for me) synthesis system would need:

The realism of the game was for me the absolute first reason I came to the game, and keep playing it since alpha. Many things i like are already abandoned, or simplified: Auto-attack, No fatigue anymore, and now the synthesis? Needing different lacquers, dyes, enamels for the different materials is just awesome, including the fact that you have to gather some in so much places.

I mean, I agree with the difficulty encountered when crafting as explained in the [dev1016] post, but that's what interest me, the few things the system need are "needed Rank" adjustment for consecutive and intermediate materials and maybe the amount of what is created when you don't need 12 of that.

I swear, i'll be happy if every updates lead to a good game, but except the add of contents, the revisions of the different Combat and Crafting system do not please me (again, just talking for myself, maybe all players don't want a realist MMO, and would prefer an easy one, but come on, such games are all over the MMO market, and FFXIV was coming with so much new things that really interest people!) This is the game I like to play, and would like to continue to play.

I'm losing gradually what I loved at the first sight, and maybe if some other game come out with that "thing" that the game had at the beginning, i'll look into it.

I really hope it won't happen for me or other people, because that's a great game from many views.

I agree with all the changes. It will do more to bring some sense into the crafting process and prevent our inventories from exploding.
