Devs and Rogues

It would seem to me that every game developer plays a rogue of some sort for every mmo on the market, every tech demo every demonstration at e3, pax, gamescom etc they are always showcasing the rogue. well by doing that they may have alot of players lose interest in the game. im not a fan of the rogue class in any game, never have been.much prefer the warrior/tank classes myself and when i want to dps i play a mage or archer. just dont generally like stealth. now im not saying that my opinon = god or anything im just saying that maybe they should try showcasing a diff class at each event rather than the same content at every single one of them. this is just my take on things ive noticed and if you dont think its true you can simply look up mmo's at gaming events all you see is rogue gameplay from 90% of them. so i guess my question is this. WHERES MY TANK AT?!?!?!?

    They have always showcased all three classes at all events. They showed wizard, rogue and defender. It just so happens that videos of rogues are more watched due to that being a popular class.

    They did not showcased ranger or cleric. These classes have issues to be sorted out. Cleric with their non-tab targetted heals:- which is a relatively new thing for RPGs (only know of RaiderZ releasing at similar time which boasts of similar system).
    Similarly for rangers as it would be FPS like in this game. So may be they are sorting out the issue and seeing if they can include rangers too.

    So far they have showcased the Rogue and Wizard in presentations, while all three (including the warrior) have been playable in demos. I'd expect that it'll come up at the next event.

    Age of Conan is similar, at least the bear shaman was when I played.

    All heals are Aoe around the caster, or in a cone in front of caster (so that it may be directed). Some are activated like spells, others require you to hit an enemy to activate.

    I expect it to work something like that ;P
