Pictomancer is absurd

[CidHeiral]

What a dumb idea. This crap should be like a blue mage; it's absolutely silly trash.
Come on Square.

I'm not a fan either but the game has over twenty combat jobs. It's not only fine but probably healthier for the game overall if they don't all appeal to everyone.

it's absolutely silly trash.

Friend, you're playing a Final Fantasy game; silly trash is one of the main categories on the menu.

If you're not down for that, you picked the wrong game.

Are you sick of the fun and colorful pictomancer? Are you looking for lore-friendly and serious jobs? Do you have a violent allergy to video game paint?
Friend, have I got the job for you appearing in 8.0!
Introducing: The ultra edgy, ultra badass, amazingly cool PURPLE MAGE. It's an exclusive job from the darker and edgier Final Fantasy 19, and it's a DPS job that'll blow pictomancer out of the water.
Get ready to have features like a 69000 potency spell that makes your eyes bleed, a job action that instantly negates any damage taken for 420 seconds, and finally an OGCD in which your character says "Fuck" and whatever enemy you're fighting instantly dies from 1000 razorblades to the kidney!

The Purple Mage is totally lore friendly, totally original, and 100% your new main coming in 8.0 alongside the new healer class the Merchant! (The Merchant automatically pays the subs of any party they join which prevents "you don't pay my sub" excuses)

Dancer is absurd. Prancing about in battle? Preposterous.
Gunbreaker is absurd. That weapon would break your arm, if it didn't blow it clear off.
Bard is absurd. Pulling out a harp out of your butt in the middle of a battle and play a little ditty? That's a good way to get killed.
Astrologian is absurd. What kind of mid-20's yuppie crystal healing tarot reading crap is this?
Sage is absurd. It's just Gundam.

Don't like a job. Fine. There's 20 other Jobs in the game you can play. Not everything in the game is made for you. Don't piss in other's Cheerios.

And?

I think Reaper is silly trash.

Fighting with a scythe? Really? And so dark and evil and "cool".

When we can have an absurd job like Reaper then we also can have Pictomancer.

I just want to see it in combat with those paint splatter and see how it affects others. Only thing I will use it for is to get it to max level then never use it again. Looks way to cartoonist for my liking. Relm at least looked real and not cartoonish.

Most obvious bait I've seen in ages. This was posted two hours ago almost exactly, it's nothing but whining, nothing constructive or interesting, and yet it's up to the third page already, c'mon people

I would imagine we'll get Geomancer once the rest of Hinigashi opens up.

This game has horse-sized chickens, flying cat-bats that carry your mail, sapient rabbits in turbans who play a crucial role in stopping the apocalypse, and a questline with a walking slapstick joke and his bomb-happy sidekick, but NOPE the pictomancer is too silly for this game.
