    One of the things the US players can't seem to understand is the Classes in XIV are just weapon specialists not Jobs.


    Class > Weapon Specialist
    Job > Role Specialist

    In japan Gladiator is called something like "Sword User" not "Gladiator"


    Even the former director stated multiple times. Classes are Not Jobs and Jobs are Not classes when it comes to the terms used in FFXI, FFXIV and previous Final Fantasies (We are not considering how they are used in other MMO's at this point)

    A Gladiator (Sword User) can be a Thief, Warrior, Paladin, Dragoon (Wing Swords), Red Mage, Samurai, Ninja.

    While a Paladin can use a Sword, Lance, Shield, Great Sword, Club.

    If the US players could start grasping that concept they'd understand that a System that adds Jobs ontop of the Classes is the most likely course they are going to take (Choice 2 that Yoshi-P comments on in a recent Interview on Eorzeapedia.)

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.
