Bit of a threadjack here, but... I enjoy crafting in EQ2 and WoW, and I can even tolerate it in CoH, but the system here is rather tough. I don't mind creating my own personal grimoire of synthesis recipes, but the failure rates remind me a lot of the early days of EQ2 -- without the exploding forges that instantly kill you, thankfully. The recipes I've found so far in goldsmithing produce relatively unimpressive items, too. It's hard for me to get excited about something that's seemingly so important, yet so punishing to those who try to approach it. Compared to the combat system (which I'm really starting to love) and even the gathering mini-games, synthesis seems so arbitrary and just plain mean.
