Would you prefer a new race or a new job?

Job, or neither. But honestly SE has a bigger budget for development than 98% of mmos on the planet.

Square Enix, maybe. The dev team for FFXIV, unlikely.

Sadly, they tried that with HW, and it lasted all of a month for the most part. There really isn't any way to improve the queue times as the people that enjoy tanking, are already tanking. Same with healing. The vast majority of people who main DPS either:

1. Aren't interested enough in tanking/healing to become a tank/heal main
2. Aren't confident enough to take on the role of tank/heal
3. Have had major amounts of bad experiences with tanking/healing and dropped it
4. Haven't tried it yet, and aren't sure about if it will be worth it.

Yeah but no adding new ones make the tank/healer population Falls like now in stormblood, we need to recover with a new cool tank healer.

Jobs, definitely. We have plenty custumization options already, and they keep adding new hairstyles and other small options from time to time for added diversity anyway, I'd prefer to have more jobs to play with instead.

There is also the fact that we don't need more humanoid races, and I'm fairly sure they're never gonna add an actual beast race anytime soon...

New job. A new race is meaningless when you already play the best race, aka Thighlander.

Current races getting more customization options would be far better than a new race, too.

Thighs are meaningless when ones ass is flat.

I suggest, we skip job and race and get ingame butts.

Recover? My que times have been around the 10 minute wait, which isn't that bad in comparison to what they could be, see WoWs 20+ minute wait times. >.>

I would prefer a new job over a new race because if theres one thing Au Ra proved its that square will take shortcuts and use pre-existing models to create new races. So for Au Ra, they got the elezen body for males and the male miqote running animation. Its a waste of time adding a new race especially when they don't even want to make them unique in order to fit them into gear that already exists instead of creating a new base for gear to match new body types.

So I will have to go with Jobs because even if they release a new race, most people are just going to stick with one. With jobs, its something people can switch to or try or main and its just generally more used.

i would prefer a new race over new job. There are already 15 battle jobs and with some playing almost the same as another even with the tweaks made at expansion release. I would however welcome an entirely new role to the game like instead of tank/heal/dps every run could throw in support in get more unique benefits from machinist and scholar.

In a perfect world, I'd love to see both. Viera race (sexy bunnies) I'm looking at you :P

However, with what OP stated about budget constraints I'll settle for a new job, or more specifically more tank and healer jobs.
