Other 'planned/leaked' classes.

So again, tell me Peregrine what your idea is of a job that is not generic? I'm still waiting for you to actually acknowledge that question.

Lol I already told you three times and you missed it every chance you had.
Which job is less generic? Paladin with 20 years of FF history and a literary archetype behind it, or an Enforcer that you just pulled out of your ass right now?

Your ideas have no potential. We've already tried your ideas and they failed. No one should listen to your all's ideas, because we all just watched them crash and burn.

What, do you want to see another fireball trainwreck? Get out of here.

So a class that has been done to death in literally every fantasy RPG in existence is not generic but something like Fencer or Flayer is. Yet disregarding that classes like Fencer, Musketeer, Bard and Assassin have a history in the FF series as well. In fact even Flayer does to some degree (Quistis FFVIII).

You don't know anything about the alpha classes aside from a name and a weapon or magic. None of us know anything else about them. You can't really say how generic or unique they will be until they release any kind of information on them.

Um, no.

Pretty sure having to level jobs to 50 to get anything interesting is horrible game design

No one said level them all to 50, just have a prerequisite. Think Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, you only have to level some jobs a bit (learn 3 abilities) to fulfill their requirement.

Quistis was a blue mage, not evidence of a flayer. Bard is a legitimate FF job. Assassin starts to jump the shark. Enforcer just straight looks like they don't give a **** any more and are desperate to switch it up.

All I need to know about the jobs is that they look like someone pulled them out of their asses just like the jobs we have now. More of the same is more failure. They will bring nothing new to the table that archetypal FF classes would not, and they are generic MMO fodderpieces with no history or fan loyalty. They PANDER to players who don't know real innovation if it backhanded them. Pseudoinnovation. We call them novelties and gimmicks, these superficial pointless changes for change sake, when they really change nothing. All these players want is cats with whips. They don't understand anything higher than that.

If your generic jobs are just prerequisites, what are you going to do about everyone who levelled a generic piece of **** for 50 levels? Give them a voucer for a REAL job?
