Once classes started being named things like "Control Wizard" it became pretty clear the idea of the game being Dungeons&Dragon fell apart..is an MMO set in Dungeons&Dragons ..it is not Dungeons and Drgaons v1 2 3 4 5 or whatever it is today,...

Doesn't make it a bad game..its simply not what it appears to be.

I'm surprised and dissapointed with this aspect of the classes as well. Why is the class a "Control Wizard", when it should be "Wizard" with a 'Control' spec possibility? It doesn't make sense to dilute a single aspect of a class into its own class. If they were going to do that, they should have dropped the D&D class naming convention entirely and just called this the "Archmage" which would mean whatever the heck they wanted it to without sounding like an overly limited Wizard.

Now they have a "Great Weapon Fighter" coming out. I am assuming that it uses large weapons, but that doesn't seem to be what a "class" should be based on....
