    It's the least popular, because it's boring and lacks visual flair. I've enjoyed all the jobs I've ever played, but MCH is just ugh.

    Have you never seen a MCH perform a Wildfire rotation? Aside from the fact that many skills' animations flow well between each other, when you weave oGCDs, there's no way you can say a MCH going all out is "boring". It's only boring if you're doing it wrong.

    I would suggest that you watch MrHappy's MCH video that just released a few days ago where he goes over all the MCH abilities while playing the MCH (he was invited by square to play on Stormblood closed server) many of the skills have new graphics and some look absolutely amazing now.

    One picture:

    A thousand words.

    No posting against, but couldn't resist the opportunity.

    Honestly speaking in HW I really was not interested in the MCH gemeplay. Got it to 60 and played it a bit every now and then on expert and 60 roulettes but never got to me.
    The SB overhaul looks way more appealing, specially now that I have the PvP weapon which looks the best! (cuz its not a giant single-handed cannon).

    I can and I will. Spamming the same ability hoping for a proc isn't fun. Like I already said it lacks any visual flair other then Ricochet.

    Already did. Some of the new stuff looks cool, but that's only a handful of abilities, as opposed to the rest of it which is just bleh. Then I look over at BRD and am just like "whoa that looks insanely fun" by comparison.

    Because seeing high numbers is fun and they're abilities, at least, look nice. Give me Fire IV over pew, pew pew anyday.

    That's what your reloads are for.

    Beyond that, it sounds like you simply like big flashy effects. Well, MCH has that, but compared to perhaps Bard or BLM, it's not as flashy. As for numbers. . . Again I'm not sure where you aren't seeing big numbers on MCH but if you're just fishing and waiting for procs and not weaving and utilizing reloads to help that, then yes, you're probably not seeing what's fully possible.
