So making the Job having a dragon companion would be shitting all over the DRG lore which, IMO has the best lore in this game next to SMN. Their armor "look" dragonic because it is forged with the blood / life-force of dragons - basically putting the "facing fire with fire" kind of idea.



From what I've read I do think that they're being serious. Seriously IMHO people who suggested that DRGs need a pet are people who never even DRG at all.
You're also leaving out the party that due to this last patch..... and being told that we pretty much aren't being told the 'entire story' behind dragon/mortal relations..... Not knowing what started the war between them to begin with... and to top it off, the fact that Ishgard is the cliche religious type Kingdom who calls everyone and their dog a heritic in JRPGs that never tell the whole side of a story.... can you honestly without a doubt, say that the entire 'dragons are bad, we are their mortal enemies' is something thats meant to be set fully in stone? The cliche of this set up in japanese games/anime/manga is so obvious in the direction it's going its laughable.
