I mean, I know some people understand some topics better than others but I didn't think an explanation on why people want Thief in a FF game. It boggles the mind.
What boggles the mind more is how changing the name makes any difference to how the class plays. If we're being honest, our Black Mage is about as far removed from the Black mage's of old as can be and is pretty much Black mage in name alone. Sure they have nukes, but only if you count three measly elements and none of the supporting spells like Drain.

I'd sooner have a class which plays like a thief, looks like a thief and is called a Rogue than a class which plays nothing like either and is still named a Thief.
