Can't people honestly discuss anything here without it being all black and white?

Why does one have to be labeled a complete fan-boy or a troll no matter what they post here? Seriously people grow up.

I agree with some that there is a bunch of content coming that probably will add more depth to the overall experience (in about a year) but I also agree with parts of the OP's thoughts.

Yes the crafting and battle mechanics still feel like bare bones of what's hopefully to come and if nobody encourages SE to do anything about it the situation will remain. Heaven knows every single game media outlet 100% agrees with that sentiment even if it's an opinion based on a 12months old build of the game.

FF franchise is known for having a lot of depth and various systems that were invented for every FF game.
*sphere grid (X)
*materia (VII)
*job system (III)
*hunts (XII)
*fishing (XI)
*card game (IX, VIII)
etc...

I think its completely reasonable to expect them to do something equally good without sounding like a "troll".
