Also i find it funny that you mention FF and classes.

Funny because many classes were not part of FF untill game x or y introduced them...
Though, after about 20 some odd years, you have a very, very large bases of classes to pull from without trying to introduce something new. Given that classes in XIV were supposed to be customized", they're all very generic on the Japanese localization, the western localization is where you even see these names.

There was nothing wrong with Black Mage, Red Mage, White Mage, Paladin/Warrior/Berserker/Viking, Dragoon (though it will be linked to XI's cuz of your Wyvern pet), Ranger, Monk/Thief. However it seems some people just simply hate the idea of using anything from FFI-XI (XII/XIII were reintroduction of certain features.)
