This is not FFXI

[blowfin]

It's not about something being in XI, it's about XIV needing something they should have added first.

It's totally about that, just about everything (non balance related) that people complain about regarding jobs is borne out of some notion they got from previous FF titles.

Examples:
- RDM melee crowd in XI
- SMN's complaining about their Egi's in XIV
- People who want XIV DRG's to have wyvern pets

People seem to think "Oh I LOVED Job X in FFII, it should be exactly the same as that in every FF game for eternity.".

No, people want Red Mage not because it was in Final Fantasy XI, but because it has been in the overarching Final Fantasy series since Final Fantasy ONE!!!! It along with Warrior, Monk, Thief, Black Mage, and White Mage belongs to the original cast of Final Fantasy classes!!!

As for Summoners... I must be one of the few Summoners who doesn't want the Egi's to look like the Primals. I understand the design choice, and accept it for what it is. I would honestly be rather pissed if we ended up with actual clones of the Primals because I would feel that is against the Lore of the Game.

As for the Wyvern thing. I have to admit, I kind of do miss seeing Dragoons running around with they baby Dragons. But that is just me.
