Naoki Yoshida's Comment in Regard to Jump Potions/Boost Potions

[HyoMinPark]

I'm against these potions. I could understand if we were preparing for the fourth or fifth expansion, but this is only the second one. And already there are story skip potions?

And job jump potions? Story ones I can unwillingly accept, but these? No! I can't!

We already have people unlocking the 3.0 jobs, not bothering to read the tooltips, and then entering DF without the foggiest idea how to play the jobs (don't get me started on the amount of DRKs that don't even know what Darkside is, or even want to use it because "MP management is too hard", or ASTs that don't know what their cards do because they can't be bothered to read the effects)...how are these potions going to make that any better? I understand that bad players will continue to be bad, with or without these potions, but...

The NA/EU player base is vastly different from the JP/CH/KR player base; that much is clear just based on how each player base handles different situation in duties. I just have a very uneasy feeling that a lot of people will purchase these out of laziness, and that they won't be used for alt characters or alt jobs. And I feel like the job ones do teeter on the edge of P2W. It gives you auto-level 60 (going off of what Yoshi-P said for the ones they would implement for post-Heavensward), with appropriate weapon and gear it seems, all of your skills, all quests marked as clear. How is that not P2W?

I don't know...just don't have a good feeling about this. That's my 2 gil.
