A lot of the gear definitely does take too long, considering the amount of classes there are.. It's a nightmare to gear them. Like, right now, I won't play my RDM, since I don't have the weapon, and won't have the weapon anytime soon (haven't actually played in weeks maybe.. more like two months actually). I am probably not going to even do experts on my tank, because it's insufficiently geared. I keep my main (whm) geared to (what I consider) an adequate level and that's about it. I don't do content like savage, so I can't even go beyond basic crafted (I have to buy) or tomestone gear.

Here's the thing with crafters and gatherers, I want to have them, but I also don't want to have them. The inventory management alone is still scaring me away from them. I just don't want to deal with the headache. Pretty much that simple. I know I need them, so I can craft stuff for my house, etc.. but like.. I don't know if I really want to, plus it's boring. So boring. I'd have to watch something on the side or something.

It's not that big of an issue to have outfits that are thematic to the game, the issue is actually making them creative and look good, and, frankly, I don't think SE does a very good job for the most part. The thing is though, I have seen really cool or higher quality outfits that they have made, like in PvP ranked. So I know they can do it, they just don't do it! The rare occasion we get cool stuff, the vast majority of players won't get them, and for that matter people are/were win trading to get them! It's unbelievable! Now, don't get me wrong, I also like casual outfits. I have worn them on my character, and posted them several times in various screenshot threads, but we get a severe lack of both, in my opinion. I mean, a severe lack of *quality* stuff. If this game had more *quality* collectibles and outfits to strive for and unlock I would probably play more, even with the content they release as is. We literally get slow content updates, and little to no rewards, or just not interesting rewards a lot of the time. It sucks.
