That's not so easy. With crafter names we had two options : either patch in the fix and make them reappear, or let it at it is currently without the names. There was not a clear consensus on which option you prefered us to choose. The middle ways suggested in the feedback thread (letting the crafter choose individually, using rites to create named items, etc.) would have required some additionnal coding, delaying the patch (and the other changes to the game we are currently working on). So we have chosen to patch the change, and added the ideas to the list of suggestions.
- What happened to the glimpse of production?
I will post about that next week, but it is already greatly replaced by David's and Jessica's letters, and the new four information sections. There is just nothing in the Glimpse of Production which isn't in these htree publications - in fact, there is much more in it.
- What happened to the Questions and Answers?
I'm preparing a Q&A for next week.
