People are getting rather hot under the collar here for no real good reason. Some of these arguments will be met, others won't. I think it's important to realize what's not changing here, which is vertical progression. It's here to stay and we're not going to see it change anytime soon.

As far as horizontal elements to our progression? We're almost guaranteed a degree that over time. But keep in mind human limitations. The process will be slow, and there will be lulls, and you won't get exactly or everything you want. Period. Relax, and don't use straw-man, circular arguments or flat out misinformation to support your opinion. There's no need. Leave your honest desires as they are, and move on.

Some of the obsessive level hatred and support of this game is just unhealthy.
