I will refrain from judging the current proposed updates until I get a chance to actually test out the changes in game myself.

But I will say this: Turbine has done a fabulous job with the past few years of patches & updates in my opinion. Some changes and additions to the game I really have enjoyed:

~ Sets, Epics, New Loot Tier, Lvl 8 Spells.
~ Societies, Armors, Tasks, two Castles including black markets.
~ New Out Door Hunting Areas (Freebooter, Moar Island, Gear Knights, Frozen Valley, City of Neftet,
~ New Alt Currencies, New Items to purchase
~ 3 New Skills (Void, Twohand Combat, & Gearcraft)
~ Aetheria
~ New Races, New monsters
~ Updated High Tier Rares
~ Rare Exchanger
~ New Armor Types Over Robes, Knorr, Haebrean, Olthoi Alduressa, Olthoi Celdon,Olthoi Amuli, Olthoi Koujia, etc etc.
~ Trinkets
~ Updated Casinos
~ Tailoring
~ Cloaks

I think all the people who have quit or are threatening to quit because of these "proposed changes" owe it to themselves and to Turbine to say what and more importantly why they do not like specific a proposed change. Turbine is being very open with the community and asking for feedback prior to the february patch.
