There Is No Dancer (yet)

Okay, enough of this joke.

why? what's gotten you so triggered?

why? what's gotten you so triggered?

30+ pages of dancer debate just on this thread alone (this is far from the only one) based on a few seconds of solo martial arts practice. I just got tired of it. Especially since there is very little discussion regarding red mage (job that we actually know will come with Stormblood) the potential new raids (that are said to be veeery final fantasy) or bascially anything that is known to be in the expansion.

I like dancer as a class. I want it to be in the game at one point. BUT at present it really doesn't warrant the attention it is getting. And I sure as hell don't want it to be a monk clone. That would be boring. And I hate boring stuff.

You always have the option of starting a thread yourself about a subject that pleases you more. That's why this one was created, because just like you someone was also displeased with the idea of the attention dancer was getting without confirmation.

I would love to discuss about red mage and it's potential as a job, I'm just too lazy to start a thread about it myself. And I'm pretty sure there's a lot of people wanting to discuss and speculate Red Mage just as much as dancer, but the reason to why this one in special gets so much attention is because of the whole "It's not a dancer, you're wrong and delusional" way of thinking that some people here are having. Like it was pointed out, we don't have strong evidence it's a dancer but we also don't have confirmation it isn't. All we can do is speculate and that's what everybody's doing, wether they are right or not. Worth mentioning that it's just a trailer and that the game itself will have nowhere near the same "action combat" or martial art style we're seeing there, even on the confirmed WoL monk. Plus it's not like this is the only thread on the forums, there's plenty of other things to discuss about or to read. If I get tired of the 30+ pages of dancer debate here is because I chose to read those 30+ pages to begin with, instead of any other thread created here.

I do agree with you that some of the reasons to why she is a dancer are way too daydreamy, but some of the reasons to why she isn't follows up the same path. If there is no 100% proof or evidence that she is a dancer or not, it's up to debate. If that debate takes 100+ pages there's nothing we can do about it, because everyone has the right to speak what they are thinking about a debateable subject without being belittled for what they believe due to the lack of more information. That's the whole point of speculating something.

This.

And I can't help but want to laugh out loud at the tags located below. "it's a monk you fools" is pure gold. Thanks, Crysten!

I also wonder how much of what goes on in the North American General Discussion forum actually reaches Yoshi P's eyes and ears. Ultimately, I wonder how hard he's laughing at us right now.

Talk about things I want to talk about only! Dancer isn't worth talking about!

consider the following: what if people are talking about dancer because that is what they want to talk about?
i'm not talking about red mage because i don't care about red mage. i'm not talking about raids because i've seen exactly zero pieces of information about them to discuss. and tbh, no one is going to stop talking about the (possible) parts of the expansion that THEY want to talk about, just to protect your pathetic feelings about what we should and should not be talking about.

if you've had enough of this thread, stop reading it. lmao it's that simple.
