Get rid of profession crafting times

[warcraftselblatt]

Get rid of crafting times. It's a waste of time to make someone spend 45 sec or however long it might take to "craft" an item. I think these type of timers should just be removed and have these things be instant. They add nothing to the game, they are literally just wasting time.

I realize this is not a huge deal, but the collected amount of time saved is something everyone can enjoy.

No, utterly pointless waste of devs' time.

Also just one step closer to being casual.
It's just nothing more than encouraging players to play less and become more and more casual -> Downfall of Retail

Go outside.

@pokey not pointless. Actually it's a time saver. You know what is pointless? Your post. Oh, and those pesky crafting timers.

@zeeq saving time is to casual?

@glenzig not sure who your referring to, me? Or the people arguing against saving time?

Why don't they just completely remove the cast time for all non-combat abilities? Why don't they make flight paths instant as well?

I understand this is the suggestion forum, but this is silly OP.

What kind of life do you have to make you complain about this.

@Arev your confusing things that have a point with things that dont. For example, Flight path times help create the illusion that you are flying through a large world. Whereas crafting timers add nothing.

I don't understand the resistance towards this. Does everyone like sitting around watching their character "craft" something?

@pmizz I have an active life, which is why I don't need to spend my time watching a character wiggle his hands for multiple minutes. Just because you live in your mom's basement and can waste your life watching your character wiggle it's arms all day doesn't mean I do.

I understand people want to keep the game as blizzard like as possible, but the fact is the original game wasn't perfect and there are non blizzard changes that would make this game better without changing the game drastically.

Being resistant to all change is hurting this community. It's ironic since there are so many complaints on the boards and in the chat, and yet, everyone poo poos (most of the time not constructively either) on new ideas.
