Anyway, i like the idea of an advanced job that would eliminate the use of another job (but prob wont happen cause people will cry to much about having to make a decision that they will have to live with for the rest of the game)
Yep. It's funny how people who say those with realistic...err "PESSIMISTIC" thought processes are the ones who will ruin ARR, when its those who will cry about stuff like this that are more likely to prevent anything halfway decent from popping up in the game.

Realistically if people will bitch, just slap in a GSD or Scythe used in battle (XI style Death Scythes) and make it the first standalone Job >.>
Yes it's an MMO, yes you should have "free reign on whatever the fuck you want" but ffs, there's a reason the original DRK story (that was actually a story) had cecil atone to become a Paladin and not able to do both. They're two paths of the same blade, one for "righteousness" and the other for generally "things a normal person wouldn't be able to do."

Having an ultimate choice even in a game where you can be "whatever you want" is what FF is all about since it does have effects on certain outcomes. Do you open every chest you see? Or do you save certain ones for an ultimate prize at the end? (XII for example) Do you give marlene the flower, or do you give tifa the flower? So on so forth.
