Anyone else think they should at least Specify the # of New Jobs?

I wonder if those 2 npcs with new hairstyle are part of the Knights of the 12

[Shikiseki]

I wonder if Templar will be introduced as Tank with the Ishgardians (would make sense) alongside Dark Knight as DPS class (Melee Caster?).
I'm sure they are not going to push away the Gunner any further (that'd be a huge slap for those who wanted the class) - which leaves Gunner either evolving into the mystery healing class or we'll get another healer from Ishgard (possibly Astrologist or something that evolves into Time Mage or something similar).

No. Because whatever will come, them saying anything in advanced won't rush or delay the release of whatever such jobs. I'll be excited to play whatever is new, no matter how many or few classes and jobs are released when it goes live. And will not give a flip speculating what should or should not happen before then. Or wishing such class/job, going by name alone, should or should not be exactly the same as any previous FF incarnation of same such class/job.

As the cheap guy i am, i was reading the twitch comments and someone from the premium stream said they announced 4 new jobs, but i couldn't see anything so...

[Warlyx]

maybe is tank healer and 2 magic jobs.

after 2.4 , we will have 4 DoW Dps and only 2 DoM

[Hysterior]

Probably one of the each houses from ishgard have their own speciality
so could be 4 jobs

Samurai - confirmed from Sokan's music, dat files.
Dark knight - Confirmed from the Nolan film tease.
Musketeer/Gunner - Confirm from previous Live Letter (hinted to not being what everyone expects, gameplay-wise. Could be the new healer)
4th class - ??? anyone's guess (I want to say Red Mage, only because one of the House Emblems, for Ishgaurd, is a Rose. And from FFXI that always screams Redmage/Fencer, Romantic)

Now between Dark Knight and Samurai. Which one will be the tank is up in the air. Ive been waiting for Samurai from the get go. And can see it going either tank or melee. I wouldn't really care. I kinda like tanking, since picking up PLD to bide my time. If they made Samurai a dmg dealing tank, that would be awesome. Hits so hard that dps can't even take away hate. Then Dark knight could easily go dps role. Since we already have a Paladin knight tanking. It would make some sense to have a Dark knight go dps.

I wouldn't really say that confirms anything. Samurai within the FF universe is not only a job class, it's also the name of an enemy. The files observed in Sokan's showing may simply be some form of encounter music as well.

Or it may, simply be Samurai sfx sounds, Job quest music file/folder. (If you notice the Ninja quest, in the trailer. Ninja's seem to have their own music theme as well). Either way Ill take it. And its obvious he was trying to make people catch it, as its the only folder in English, at a NA convention.

This expansion seems to be dwelling on the Northern, west and eastern sides of Eorzea, plus the continent that's hovering above. Ill anticipate my wondering Samurai npc who will flag my class.

[Rumpelstiltzkin]

Since DRK has been more or less confirmed and SAM seems set pretty much my top four would be SAM, DRK, Chemist healer and RDM. I don't know how likely it is, but that is what I am hoping for that still seems withim the possibility.
