How the hell is there 15 pages complaining about research. LOL. Researching spells was only one of the small hurdles for a pure caster in the original game. You don't need gear, and can easily solo for both EXP and Plat. Imagine being a warrior or rogue who is dependent on gear and have almost no way of earning plat on their own.
Because modern gamers have come to rely on their whining to make challenges easier vs actually rising and overcoming obstacles. These are the people who thought they were signing up for the easy life and now forced into the realization they may have to put out some effort to succeed.
