So... that spiderman shirt... (new job tease)

[Iromi]

snip.

Ninja fit in just fine the way they added it tho - they hinted it at it so long ago with Thancred and Doma. The doman's came and brought ninja, hehe so at least they fit it in before ^^

Their story was slowly introduced..it wasn't just oh bam here is the job with 0 back story or info in prior MSQ. That is what I am saying...we are nearing the end of 3.x and there has been no lead up to SAM.

and yes the AST were mentioned and hinted at, my boyfriend was telling me about AST before Yoshida mentioned it...I mean, how would he know..just lucky guess and made up the job and it matched what Yoshida released? >.> He was saying from a loooong time ago that we are getting Astrologian

The MCH guild was in 1.0 since day one. I played 1.0 and have screens of the sign..and he said tons of times he will give us our Muskateer in 1.x days.... I mean see, it was at least hinted at in some manner. >_<


There has been 0 sign of any Samurai in Erozea in the story...

The one comment about Doomtrain from that event was from a single NPC making a comment about misplacing his Doomtrain minion. Not the same thing as the director saying "yeah, these two jobs would be nice for the expansion" and having one of them be confirmed.

For in-game lore, the current Legatus we've been going against this entire expansion uses a katana and fights in a similar style to previous FF Samurai (think Jack, X-2, and XI.)

The MCH guild was not in the game until 3.0. What you're thinking of is the cut MSK guild, which isn't the same thing.

Furthermore, if you're going to say "oh the Ishgardian astrology tower was CLEARLY a prelude to the wildly different Sharlayan-style astrologians we become in 3.0" then I'm sorry to say but you're reaching really, reeeeeeeally hard there. You could point to any part of the map and claim that's foreshadowing for future jobs -- Merchant! Dancer! Shepherd (this one DID have a guild in 1.0 too!) Necromancer! Demonologist!

Yea but what I am asking is where is the story and lore for SAM so far. At least you can find tidbits in the game about dancer, rdm, etc etc all these jobs.

And yes that is what I mean, from the MSK guild we knew some type of gun job was coming because Yoshida promised he would put it in the first expansion, so while it was not MSK...it was still along the lines of what he mentioned since the 1.x days on the forums since the very first few live letters.

I do know he said he wants SAM in here...but I feel like I am just repeating myself endlessly...where is SAM mentioned in the lore? I am not asking how the other jobs are NOT Mentioned, I am asking where is samurai mentioned in the story and/or quests, etc?

I usually keep up well with the lore and I have personally never seen it mentioned...maybe I missed something? That is what I am asking.

and you mean this guy? - http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Zenos_yae_Galvus

It does look like it could be a Great Katana...but hmm but the Legatus weapons are nothing to go by, they have always been unique to them. We do not have ANY weapons that they have ever used. So if anything, this would show even less of a chance..or making even less sense of getting the job cuz this guy has the weapon lol.
