Basically this.

Also, I think Blue Mage has a lot of room for future updates, since it'll keep getting new skills and new challenges as its level raises. 48 (49?) skills are already a lot to digest to start with! I hope that people who are disappointed will at least give it a try, and see if the challenge that Blue Mage poses is entertaining to them.
