    One of the biggest losses form XI to XIV is the player having moments with their characters. In XI when you played your WHM or BLM you had to level to become a summoner. This adventure to not only get to become a Summoner but all the missions to get your other summons was a moment that anyone who took that path will always remember. I know many of us from XI miss that in the game..That proud moment where your class changed and you went into combat and did your first big AOE. What ever solution in the future should really take into account for all jobs not just the Conj or THM.The game does not sell moments well at this point. The functional aspects of the game will be fixed..But the Core of Final Fantasy is the emotional moments in the IP...I hope this helps and Its just my thoughts. But thank you for the post this is a good way to start.

    Hi Jax,

    Great post!

    I totally agree. FF XIV is *missing* those great Character Moments, where you feel like you're progressing and growing with them. I remember Summoner as well, and earning each Summon. Or trying to earn the harder spells as White Mage or Black Mage in the game.

    Here, you're given some spells at every other Rank and that's about it.


    As for Advanced Classes, it makes total sense (and I hope), Producer Yoshida gives us:

    * Conjurer Rank 50 --> Advanced Class: Black Mage or White Mage (choice)


    Whatever choice we make, we can also go and learn the other choice as well (so get Conjurer to 50 --> choose White Mage Advanced Class, but you can also switch over and learn Black Mage Advanced Class later if you want).

    And SUMMONER, yes please!
