Actually, Kat, myself and a few other folks have been discussing this for a little while now, it was just made that much more apparent today.

I personally would like to see classes become just as useful as jobs. Especially now that we see rogue/ninja. the two appear radically different to me, and the gear that both were wearing resemble AF already so it would appear they were two different jobs.

Other classes have features that would be useful outside their "job" form. For example, I really miss carbuncle on SMN/SCH post 50 but I can no longer use carbuncle unless I'm on ACN at that level. Thats one downside Ive noticed. The other is that certain classes also have access to more cross-class abilities than their job counterparts, etc.

I think making "classes" a more viable option (maybe with their own version of soul crystals and new abilities from 30-50) would bring more diversity to the game as well.

Anyways, I realize a lot of this may not make complete sense as I am very tired from staying up far too late watching e3 reveals here in Japan.
