"In terms of gameplay, the title features three classes, combo-based combat, and a cube system that provides for rare combines, crafting items, and item deconstruction"
@nimzy but complexity and choice are not the same thing.
I used to play an enh shamman in Wrath. To max my dps I had to find the correct balance of: agility, strength, int, attack power, spell power, crit, expertise, hit, mp5, and weapon speed. A horribly complex system that actually required me to download an add-on just to tell me if ring A had better stats than ring B.
And all that balancing changed as soon as someone casted a buff, and I had to recalculate it all over again.
It was hellishly complex, but there was no choice. Either ring A was better, or ring B was better... that isn't choice.
