SAMURAI SHOWDOWN

[DWolfwood]

They made a poll when Yoshida took over, and they didn't listen. What Ciri said just there is proof of that very same poll. So no, they don't really listen to the players, or they wouldn't be pulling the "PS3 limitations" excuse so often.

Getting way off topic here, but thanks to that poll we got SMN next with a new healer, then we got NIN, and they got an idea where of how to design the next new race, Au Ra. Players really wanted DRK too, so we got that as well.

Convince me why 2 or even 3 DPS jobs "From the East" is too many. After all, isn't 3 "Western" Tanks too many? Shouldn't Dark Knight have been a "Western" DPS because we already had 2 "Western" Tanks? This makes literally no sense.

You really gotta work on your reading comprehension man. Go back and look at the very first post in this thread and you'll see that I want a Samurai DPS and Tank.

Also Rogue/Ninja is never called Thief in FFXIV...so I'm not sure why you brought that up.

It's actually referred to it in the class quests, and they explain why they're not the "thieves" guild. That said, the reason I brought it up is because it was always referred to as "thief" in preliminary talks before the class was announced. Much like samurai now.

However based on common media portrayal etc.

You really gotta just give this up. lol

So again - is having all the "Western" DPS and Tanks too many "Western" DPS and Tanks? Why does the influence of the region in game or IRL matter /at all/?

Because people use the argument saying that tanks have too many "swords" or "already have a 2h sword," so my question is "would a sam tank and dps be too much considering there are already two eastern themed dps?" If the answer is no, that dps can accommodate it, then I ask those people to please like my first post so that we can gain traction on this idea and bring two samurai to the game.
