Crafting in this game is just plain boring. They though hey why not make crafting more interacting, more of a class on it's own, for sure that would be better then what other mmos do..... Yeah no... not a good idea. I much prefer WOW's version of press 1 button and it crafts alone or press another button to craft the maximum amount of times based on your materials. It basically does the same as FFXIV but without the whole bore me to death and slavery feeling to it.
