Dunno how far you are in the story, but I got more into it as time went on. If you don't like it so much now you might like it a lot more later down the road.

I do have to agree with one part of se's gating of hw, it's related to what one of the above posters already stated. I haven't started many of my new jobs yet, but the new ones seem to have a bit higher of a learning curve tagged to them. It's most likely a combination of them being brand new and everyone learning to optimize them yet, but the classes are going to be easier to learn if you already know the battle system and what's expected of you from previous experience with the pre existing jobs. Anyone could pick them up, but it'll be easier in skilled hands.
Charlie haha. Yes that's a pretty good comparison.


I agree that tanking became very easy after reaching lv50 as a paladin and some levels on Marauder. Learning curve wasn't too difficult to grasp since I've tanked on other games too. I'm only a level away from reaching 50 on my Dark Knight so hopefully Ishgard is something I can take my time to enjoy exploring at leisure.
