    Based on the majority of the games out there.
    edit: also, this. Water being opposite of Fire makes more sense than Wind anyway.

    All the FF games you listed had different elemental rules for the most part. None of this is realistic, therefore "intuition" means very little.
    They might have had different rules, but base element relationships were never twisted as they are in FFXIV - I'd remember that.
    I don't care if it was fire <-> ice | lightning <-> water or fire -> ice -> lightning -> water -> fire
    But going wind -> fire is ridiculous. Speaking of realism: why do you think we fear the wind when there are fires around?

    If you play FFXIV long enough and stop trying to compare it to other games, the two elemental triangles we have now become "intuitive." They have for me, it will happen to you too.
    No, it won't. I played this game since alpha and I still have to keep the elemental wheel chart open. They tried to be different for the sake of being different, and you see where it got them. They're fixing the things with 2.0, so they might as well fix this too.
