Combat system is beyond saving.

The pendulum will probably shift, eventually. It's just kinda funny that XIV is going through it's homogeneity phase in the 2020s when most MMOs had this problem in the late 2000s to early 2010s.

This. My previous mmo had this homo phase back in 2012 or so. Very unfortunate xiv's doing this in 2024; look forward to modernity in 2028 folks!
