MAC: How has the incorporation of new jobs since the 1.21 patch been working? How are you looking to move forward with new jobs from here? More from FFXI or completely original ones?

NY: We're trying our best to create jobs while keeping the traditions of the Final Fantasy series in mind. This includes looking into bringing back jobs from previous titles such as summoner, thief, ninja, samurai, and red mage. Rather than obsessing over originality, we want XIV's jobs to evoke a true Final Fantasy feel while remaining balanced within XIV's battle system.

And apparently the bestiary is being implemented (Jynx is playing with themselves right now), and it can level you somehow?

Nothing exciting aside of the mention of the "bestiary" solo content. I'd be awesome if it was something similar to XII hunts.

Yeah, how dare people want jobs that are less common in the series, like Geomancer and Mystic!

I did like how he said whatever they bring in will be tweaked to fit the XIV world though. Better than just dropping random FF stuff and saying, "BAM! fanservice."

I don't think that's the meaning of it...

If people have played FFIX, they should know that this is how most likely FFXIV will be approached. FFIX was able to have a ton of references to the games before it without conflicting with the world itself.

Pretty much, but that's what happens when people overlook one of the better FF games.
