Why choose one job from XI when we can ask for ALL of them !

[Kafeen]

XI and XIV are 2 different games, with different mechanics. You wouldn't be able to play any XI job, in XIV, as it is in XI...
Blue mage has tonnes of skills - in XIV you got 5 job skills...so how would you play Blue Mage in XIV, with just 5 skills?
They didn't even wanna add Leviathan egi, to SMN, cause that'd be an extra skill, then they'd have to add an extra skill to all other jobs, too..
So if they add 100 mob-skills to blu, they'd have to add 100 skills, to all other jobs...

Unless it changed after I stopped playing, most FFXI jobs didn't have anywhere close to the number of skills that BLU had and BLU couldn't use all of their skills at the same time, they had to select a limited selection of skills from their arsenal to equip.

I don't see why that couldn't also work in FFXIV.
