Almost into 7.3, what you think about the *improved* encounter design?

[OdinelStarrei]

I will give them credit. Encounter design is 100% better than in EW. However it is still bad due to overall job design

I'll agree with this. They can do whatever they want with the combat encounters, and I can praise elements of DT design over EW for sure.

But the jobs are the lens you view the rest of the game at. If the jobs aren't fundamentally fun to play, it casts a shadow over the entire game, whether that be in savage, in dungeons, or on a dummy. You can give me the most engaging, fulfilling task on the planet, but if you give me a garbage, boring tool to work on it with, I will never be truly satisfied. Building mansions on foundations of sand.

This is my biggest personal gripe with all of FFXIV.
