Are they getting rid of the job system?

[ClausL]

I guess I was just hoping Yoshi-P would fix it =/

to most people it seems confusing and redundant

seriously, try explaining the job/class system to a friend or new player... and explain why it's needed.

would it not just be better if there was just 'jobs', you started as a Dragoon from the get go? the whole class & job thing is bizarre

I'm not against every game mechanic, I'm looking forward to ARR. why are you attacking me? Kind of rude/low class. I asked a legitimate question.

Yoshi-P has changed a lot so I thought maybe he would toss out the job system.

Kind of rude/low class.

There's nothing rude about it;
And you sure as hell can't talk low-class when 98% of your post quota has been to QQ about some thing or another; constant posting of topics that are designed to cause a shitstorm when you're bored and as soon as one is off the front page, another one pops up.

You have an awfully funny way of 'looking forward to the game' when all I've seen you do is whine about it.

If you don't want people to attack you, stop posting nonsense and then whining when people don't share your opinion -THAT'S low class.


Edit: Not to mention this debate has been hashed out a bunch; do a search on the forums and you'll see for yourself.

I've actually explained the class/job system/armoury system to plenty of friends.

It boils down to two things: specializaton and costomization.

So choosing which role to play (specific job) or a more open class, is dependent on the content you wish to do and your role in the party. There were some black mages that opted for thaumaturge vs ifrit for example, as playing the class provided more survivability. Suffice to say that having the freedom to be specialized and to be more open is never a bad thing. XIV handles this very well IMO.

Why is this system necessary? Starting out as the job automatically makes your character be stuck in that specialization. I'm not extremely familiar with how XI handled it, but I do know you could have a subjob, that's about as much as I know about XI since I never played it, nor intend to.

I feel the way it works right now in XIV leaves room for freedom, and as I stated earlier, freedom is never a bad thing.

The class/job/armoury system in XIV encourages people to play multiple classes and combinations without breaking the game and making it necessary to have X class lvld (I'm aware this happened in 1.0 but I'm pretty sure it won't occur in ARR).

I don't think yoshida will change this a lot, but I do think the development team will probably tweak it to make it more balanced. (So that those who want to only level and play one class can without many issues or expectations).

It sucks you don't like it though, as there is honestly a very minuscule chance this system will be changed.

ummm most new players get the class/job system...its not all that hard...in fact its easier then what your making it out to be....You would have to be like....8 years old not to figure out how to work it >.>
