The wait is HELL. SE release the 2 missing classes.

I'd rather they keep concentrating on fixing/balancing the game and slowly rolling out new content. The game wouldn't be in the state it was in if things could be easily fixed AFTER they're already implemented. They need to be fixed during the development stage. We don't need more bug ridden classes with poorly defined party roles running amok.

Exactly right, as much as i am anticipating new jobs and stuff, i think at this stage its clear enough they need to take their sweet time balancing out their current classes and content before they roll forward with new buggy unbalanced poorly defined party roles.

As frustrating as it is having very little content in the game, to me it's even more frustrating getting new semi-complete semi-polished and half assed content just for the sake of rushing which is the very reason i find new patches not so appealing. We just need to face the fact that the game was rushed out too soon(ironically after a long time) in a very incomplete state and needs alot of work to get it up to a good functional and enjoyable experience and then they can have full focus on expansion packs and new content, classes and what have you.
Too early at this stage, i would imagine any new class would be just as dull, mundane and unbalanced/undefined as the current classes we have because the current system dictates that. Let the overhaul take place, then worry about new content.

I do understand what your saying but the whole Job thing is brand new, and the two missing classes is something that should have been in the game from the the start since they have guilds along with airships and chocobos. Yoshida decided to add a new job system before adding the 2 missing jobs that shouldve been in the game from the start..

Musketeer is the biggest reason i got FFXIV.

Wait wait wait.

Where is Shepherd?

Also its crazy to think about what went through tanakas head to release the game in that state. Lol

I do agree that the current classes need balancing first, but on the other hand, what game has balanced classes? On that note, we won't see Musketeer or Arcanist till a year or so if that's the case.

Erm, you do know the devs (including Tanaka) have no choice in when the game is released, right?
That's all upper management. They give the devs a deadline on when it needs to be released and even if it's not entirely finished, they need to try and make it as acceptable as possible. (Which didn't work for FFXIV)

Not like it's anything new for SE, they even did that for FFVII and the devs had to cut quite a lot out including a side-quest to revive Aeris (They even forgot to remove her unique text that she says if she's in the party after the point where she dies lol)

But on topic. I can't see it happening for a long time, as much as I'd like it to happen.
One thing that's gotten my hopes up for it to be soon though, was Yoshi-P saying "saving implementation of all classes until 1.20"
I really hope he's on about these, but he probably isn't.
