    All the Final Fantasy games reflect in their successors. Doesn't matter if you don't like it. The whole point of the Job System is to reflect that it IS Final Fantasy and pull favorite parts from past FF games that people enjoy. Same reason they are bringing materia to XIV. This isn't VII right?

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    Never said I didn't like it.

    Materia is a name, the materia system from VII won't be in XIV. They are bringing the name in to help bring the FF feeling into XIV.

    The Materia system is simply a "crafting" system that lets you modify a weapon with stones to give you benefits. In FFVII it gave you skills, traits, and stat bonuses. Because skills are already granted by the weapon iteself and in the future jobs. Materia will simply give traits and stat bonuses maybe a few might give skills but that will be rare. Its the same system.

    By generalizing it yes it sounds the same. There are too few details to go on to say with certainty that you are right or wrong. Unless you're a dev in disguise

    But my statement was correct.
