I love Yoshida, I really do. But, every time I read another interview, my sadness at the direction of the game grows. Gearing is currently very boring and uninteresting, and they are going to push that even further in SB?

This is not an I'm quitting post. I don't plan to go anywhere. I had been considering lowering my expectations even more and just do story/quests and crafting. But in a separate interview, he talked about lowering the role of crafters even more. Again.

At this point, I'm not sure what he's trying to accomplish.
