All I can say is that I don't want FFXIV to be FFXI all over again. I left FFXI because I was burned out of it (6 years) and I don't want to be burned out of this one in even less time.

I played DRG for a while and I enjoyed the job, but I don't want to rinse and repeat.

If SE decides to make "Dragon Knight" different to DRG in any way, I will welcome the change.
