I played through both a double lone wolf mage playthrough as well as a double lone wolf ranger knight playthrough and mages felt fine to me. The ranger knight was obviously easier because all you do with them is auto but my mages were more engaging to play and had little difficulty throughout almost every encounter, save the occasional enemy with fire resistance.
I doubt they will change the system. The amount of people who are against it are a minority. I think the armor system is more or less a fine place to build more depth off of and I agree it's a little lacking, but I expect extra depth or fleshing out of systems will be done through mods. Tons of people love and enjoy the game and are happy with the current systems. It doesn't make sense to go about making huge sweeping changes that will only appease a small amount of players who are dissatisfied with it. This isn't about fanboys. There's everyone else who like the system, and then there's you and some other people ranting against the system. Whose side do you expect them to take?
