    Possible sure, but highly unlikely. They know SAM is pretty much the most requested job and has been for a while, they'd be remiss for teasing it and misleading people with it.

    To be fair, Red Mage was more requested than Samurai. That's not to say Samurai hasn't been highly requested though. Nor is it highly unlikely that the files are meant to mislead. SAM could as easily mean Sample as Samurai.

    It really wasn't though. Yoshida has mentioned samurai in far more interviews and comments from live letters etc from feedback than pretty much any other job.

    Considering I've seen people count out and list the number of games certain jobs have been in the games to prove a point, I won't challenge you to go through every live letter and tally up the number of mentions. Instead, I'll simply say that the number of comments by Developers is not an indication of greater demand by players, just a greater rate of reply by the developers.

    The fact it was also initially decided as a job for the first expansion is also telling. You don't see them saying they were going to put in red mage for heavensward.
