Edit: I actually went through this entire post to verify my claim. Its a small portion size, but I hope it illustrates the point within this thread. Through all 22 pages there have been 30 people who have expressed displeasure or negativity against limited jobs, of those people, only 7 had actually levelled the job to 60, heck the vast majority hadn't even levelled it to 50. What we are seeing is negativity from people using third-hand information, and not actually knowing what they are talking about.

Let me repeat that, only 21% of the people complaining within this thread have actually played the endgame (i.e. the vast majority of content) of BLU.
It doesn't take a genius to think that BLU and limited jobs is awful game design. Sure, your opinion would have more merit if you've experienced it to its fullest, but it's not that deep to find out the mistakes they've done with BLU.
Seriously, all you need to know is that it's limited. A playable job that can't access ALL content like the other jobs. And to think they did that so it can keep true to its roots. FFXIV has been pretty good with keeping job tradition while having the gameplay fit well with FFXIV's combat, and BLU is just a disappointment because they didn't bother to do so.

It also alienates people who love BLU, the people who have been asking for it in FFXIV, only to find out they made it some joke, a mini game. Imagine your favorite job being limited, would you be happy about that?
