So very much this. Bravely Default was SE's throwback to the older FF games and it's fantastic. It's not a perfect game by any means, it has more than a few flaws in places, but it "feels" like more of a Final Fantasy than a lot of the games in the series. It's definitely in my top 5 of all the RPG's I've played, but I still don't think any RPG will top Chrono Trigger, my favorite RPG and favorite game of all time. ;)

OP, I appreciate you taking the time out to make present your ideas in a well thought-out post. I do like the job idea... but, unfortunately, a job called "Vampire" doesn't feel like a good fit for this game. Your ideas can work for Blue Mage, though.

If you replace the Whip weapon with a Fork, and you replace anything referencing "blood" to "Gourmand", you basically get Blue Mage from Final Fantasy 9: http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/B..._Fantasy_IX%29

This is what that title's particular Blue Mage looks like (cosply pic, not mine, but accurate):

Blue Mage in Final Fantasy 9 did not regain HP from eating enemies... so those type of abilities you presented may need to change... but overall your main idea is still in tact.

Expect we already have the Valerian equipment, which is based off of Vagrant Story (which isn't a Final Fantasy but is considered part of the Ivalice Alliance).
We're also getting Lord VerMinion, which is a playful pun on SE's cardgame, Lord Vermillion. That's an FF either (even though it does have allusions to the series in it).
To add even more, Rowena even mentions "Flying Faires" in a conversation, which refers to Bravely Default's Japanese name, Bravely Default: Flying Fairy.

And what is this can of worms that will open? Old Squaresoft and Enix games being put in the limelight? Oh-no, the horror! D:
Fans are going to demand their favorite non-FF games get some recognition? They're already doing it and are probably going to continue doing that.
