As has been said many times in the past, most of the people (and it really is only a small fraction of a fraction) complaining about this aren't people that were seriously interested anyhow. They are just along for their crusade. For proof go look at the AMA or twitch streams. Not a single question was asked about gender locked races/classes. Not one. The people actually interested in the game are asking questions about game mechanics.
This. So much this that this column and thread are all superfluous.
Man, I don't usually buy into the "MMORPG gamers will bitch about anything" shtick, but this column and the 20-page thread...
If "negative feedback" on a forum is the yardstick the OP wants to use to measure merit, I would like to point out that far more "negative feedback" has been received about this article. Maybe MMORPG.COM should do something about that...
I mean.. since a few dozen people's opinions are so important when it comes to something as inconsequential as gender locking a few classes in a game.. a few dozen people's opinions should hold equal weight about the quality of the articles on this site...
