Dancer not being hinted does not matter, it's a job I enjoyed playing, by this point in the games existence it should already exist. I held out for thief when I first started because it was announced as a job in development at the time it was what really sold me on the game, to bide my time and learn about ffxiv I took up lancer, then other jobs then finally rogue dropped... Rogue and ninja was a huge bait and switch. I've done all of the content I've watched friends lose interest, and move on to Overwatch and other games because the Themepark just didn't have the right attractions anymore. After watching the trailer, and seeing the disjointed muddled direction that is no direction and this games future I don't know that this game has the right attractions for me either. It's not about one thing it's many things, it's an empty fc/linkshell 2 weeks after a patch, it's about friends checking out 3 months into an expansion because the game does not have the legs it should to carry players over. I am stubborn, I have learned to surround myself with stubborn people those people tend to stick around. The stubborn people are leaving now, if I decide to leave it's no simple matter, it's complex there are layers, and deep valid reasons because I cannot abandon an investment in time and money lightly. SE needs to really bring it, and bring it hard, they have to really sell Samurai and Redmage now that they've made the deal with stupid they need to validate that decision and IF they succeed I'll consider buying in. Right now they're really reaching.

For an expansion they claim is Ahead of schedule, and much farther progressed than forecast the state of things makes me uneasy. I admit having a favorite job to look forward to would have instantly loosened my wallet and a Collectors Edition purchase would have been made at announcement. It would have done this with many others and likely the samurai dps fans are already bought in. How many did they lose with that announcement? With a disappointing 2 job offering and neither being interesting to me I will look more critically at what this game will have to offer and make harsher judgments. Why would I leave over dancer not being added? I wouldn't, I would leave over an empty game and that is this games bleak future.
