Unlikely. In FFXI every character could play every class and that didn't happen. Mostly because people didn't craft due to it being such a monumental pain to level crafting.

Fact is, some people will simply never ever craft. They don't like it and just don't want to do it. They'd rather pay someone else to do it for them. I craft because I enjoy it. Not to make gil.

If they've made a mistake with FFXIV it's in making it too easy to level crafting and not making it rewarding enough to do so.
