Eh. Sage is fun though.Even if the OP is a troll and their WoW comparison is somewhat incorrect, the game is certainly not heading in the best of directions and the devs are already going down the path of ignoring players. Just look at the healer role and you can see this clear as day.
Healer players have had their complaints ignored near entirely for the past several years. Gameplay reduced to one button spam, classes gutted for the sake of simplicity, class quests destroyed and lore retconned or outright removed, characters ruined, gear is overwhelmingly WHM themed and they have to make every gear set have feminine bits to it (like how they butchered judge Drace's armor with the bozja healer gear), negative skill floor and a super low skill cieling, Etc Etc and all complained about notably and endlessly for years.
And what do we get told for it? "Just go play ultimate"... A response on par with shit like "Don't you guys have phones" and "you think you want it, but you don't".
Sage is the same old 1spam as everything else, 1 extra button doesn't magically make it not 1spam, you know. But some people are blind to this, and I find the best way to demonstrate this is to create a visual showing you what optimal healer play looks like. In this case, let's look at sage.

And you just weave in healing stuff when needed, which is rarely. You still spend the grand majority of your time spamming dosis. You never go for toxicon because it's a DPS loss AND E.Diagnosis is a shit heal compared to your OGCDs. so don't give me that excuse either. It's the exact same trash of a rotation as every other healer class just with you swapping two Dosis for Phlegmas every 90 seconds. I would not consider that any better than the other healers, rather I consider it to be the exact same as every other healer And can you believe this class was made to honor a dead friend of YoshiP? AND was advertised as "the complex healer", "The DPS Healer", and "The class you go play if you don't like the other healers", when It's the exact same as the other three healers in practice... That being Boring, carpal-tunnel-inducing, brainless 1spam.

Wow seriously? You're just gonna dog on a dead person like that? You must be fun at parties.Sage is the same old 1spam as everything else, 1 extra button doesn't magically make it not 1spam, you know.

Also I never knew this class was created for such a reason.
Yeah, that's why it has all the gundam aesthetics to it. Yoshi mentioned during some interviews or somesuch leading up to Endwalker's release it was made to honor a friend who died of cancer. Since they would frequently build Gundam models together. Thus healer with gundam aesthetics via the funnels.
Though personally, if someone made something so boring to honor me, regardless of aesthetics, well, I'd consider it more of a dishonor. But at least that friend is immortalized through this class, in an odd way.
As for the other things, those are all things the director and other devs said about Sage in the leadup to endwalker. All of which aren't exactly true in practice, though they may have seen it that way.
I don't get these mega gamer healers that say their gameplay is only spamming attack and ogcds... I try healing as sage in dungeons and I'm using the whole kit, even gcds and still have a hard time, the class is fun if you use all your abilities. Maybe in your static everyone is so optimal and perfect you need to do little else, but the real world of duty roulettes and the party finder could not be more different.
most dungeons atleast until the final set that is added with most partys you hardly ever have to use ur hole kit normally just poping a shield and a auto cure (that cost np) ur typically just spaming 1-2 in most cases just 1 tbh because dot doesnt count as a button cuz u hit it only once every 30-50 seconds depending how long it last unless u get lucky (yes i mean lucky with this) that ur team are idoits standing in aoes lol is the only way u will use half ur kit lol plus in ast case their kit got turned braindead after stormbloodI don't get these mega gamer healers that say their gameplay is only spamming attack and ogcds...

You're overhealing, then. Or just stuck with terrible teammates. You can let people drop surprisingly low in this game due to how infrequent damage is. Once you learn how to do that healing becomes much more dull. And no, I'm not going to play unoptimally to try and "add fun" to things.I don't get these mega gamer healers that say their gameplay is only spamming attack and ogcds...

You shouldn't be trying to heal people to full, simply. And you can often let people drop below half health or even lower before needing to heal them, even during heavier pulls in dungeons.
In the real world of duty roulettes, you are there because the roulette says you have to be. No one really needs you there currently.I don't get these mega gamer healers that say their gameplay is only spamming attack and ogcds...

Again I disagree with that since in roulettes youre not guaranteed to have people whom are top level players who can survive without healing. Healers in most content are a necessity for general survival in normal casual play where not everyone is expected to be optimal.
op's clearly a troll because the wow devs only ever cared about endgame lmfao.
there is literally no endgame for any casual player in wow. i would know, i used to be subbed for years and years.
