Derplander Update (Heavens Ward Teaser)

[HakuroDK]

Here's some wild speculation. I'm thinking the Warrior turned into a Templar, not a Dragoon. The gear may look similar, but there are many key differences, and I'm under the impression that the Warrior wouldn't simply change into gear that WASN'T Artifact Armor of some kind.

Or maybe I just think now is the absolute best possible time to introduce Templar as a job since it makes the most sense for it to be introduced when we're going to a country with a theocratic ruling body protected by a bunch of dudes with spears.

When I initially saw the trailer, I felt that there was some allegorical hints (which are all very broad stretches, I admit). The Warrior removing his armor was allegory for a new Berserker job, the shot where the gauntlet was locking into place looked a bit like Cecil's gauntlet from when he was a Dark Knight, and the way he walked away from the camera in very light-colored armor compared to a traditional Dragoon made me think about Kain's transformation into Holy Dragoon in FFIV: TAS, and the real Job Equivalent of that elsewhere is Templar.

Again, wild speculation, but it's something.
