Hello everyone. This is one of the few times I post anything. Here is my opinion on one of the key works in what I read. Anytime you take options away from the players, you make the class more cookie cutter. You did this when you followed in Warcraft's steps and made it so you could only pick abilities from one of the trees and said it was good because you gave 18 thing, which you get to pick 9 instead of the dozens (and yes I mean the plural). Fewer options always means less variation which is, by definition, more cookie cutter. This led to me taking a very long break from the game (many years and did play it at all even as a free game). And now that I came back, as a paying customer, you are now talking about taking even more of the ability to customize the characters away. Last time, I did not say anything. This time though I am going to say something. If you want the classes to be customizable, then give more options not fewer! If that is not your goal then just go ahead and take them all away. That way you can have what you are working toward which is all of the character's of a class being the exactly same. This is my opinion. As soon as you do make them all cookie cutter characters, then I will stop paying to play the game again and most likely will not return.
