Hissatsu: Kaiten

[Lium]

I asked this over on Reddit but maybe someone here knows. How do the Japanese players feel about this change? If they aren't opposed to it, then why not? That might give you a clue as to why they are making this change.

There was a post on the subreddit a couple of weeks back that had some quotes from Japanese players after the removal of Kaiten was announced. In short, they're just as bemused as the rest of us.

Thanks for the link. Reading through the SAM section, it looks as though the Japanese are mostly receptive to this skill being removed with some, of course, against it.

They seem more focused on the actual performance of the job, specifically regarding groups and synergy with other jobs. Seems like they regard this as mostly a cosmetic change that does not impact gameplay, though some would like to see the animation applied to something else.

This is false. It is extremely divisive and many question why it was removed. It may have been true when that thread was created, but is no longer the case.

So, what you're saying is it's not false. Just that more voices spoke up since the creation of that other thread.

I would be interested in reading your source. Unless of course, you speak/read Japanese, then no link is necessary. I'll just take your word for it.

I do in fact speak/read Japanese. It's not the best but it's good enough to communicate. You can simply view the megathread over in the JP section of this forum, under the DPS section. The part where its claimed to be accepted was before they actually knew of any number changes.
