You saw one ability and all the sudden we are drowning? Don't you think you are being a bit over-dramatic?

I love how they are bringing elements from other FF games. It makes ARR feel even more epic.
The LB attack is determined by the party role, not by the class, that executes the LB.
It is known.
Not at all. Don't even think that we're reacting to "one ability". The game hasn't been announced yesterday ; it's been more than 2 years. They have already shoved a lot of fanservice in our throats, hence some of us feel like puking.Quote:

And I insist on the "shove in our throat". They don't only add fanservice, they also exhibit it like it's the main dish and make sure we eat it.
I like the FF series partly because of the references from one opus to another, but these references are discreet so we can discover them (like a mini-game) and they hardly interfere with the game. Here, the fanservice has been on another level for months. And the sword in the trailer bring it up to another level : the devs just don't care anymore. They seem to have a quota of fanservice to fill, even if it means giving a sword to any class, after they've explained how much class identity and uniqueness were important to them (starting as soon as the first letter of the producer).
Which is actually a totally wrong assumption. One of the things I like about Final Fantasy is that, even though each game is it's own story in it's own universe, there are elements within each one that exist in all other Final Fantasies that define them as part of the continuum of the entity. Nevertheless, my point is that if you pull too much or too closely defined items or characters from other Final Fantasies into another, it can just make it seem like a cheesy fan service. For instance...
Chocobos exist in FFXIV:ARR - Okay
Having Barret show up in ARR as Minfilia's wife - Not okay.
You get where I'm going with this?
