Possible removal of Classes

[Alerion]

To piggyback off Vidu's post I was a 1.0 player and I never liked the classes so I feel no attachment towards them. I know it amounted to little more than a name but it never felt very "Final Fantasy" to me. I am all for the removal of classes and a semi rework of the armory system so that job crystals determine the job you are, not your main hand weapon. I realize this would actually require quite a bit of work in redoing 1-30 stories and properly splitting Scholar and Summoner but I would definitely appreciate the streamlined result.

I'd be sad to see the classes go to be honest. I really like the class stories and trainers and would rather not see them removed from the game.
I also like the idea of your character starting as a class when they're a newbie adventurer then becoming a job as they grow into the Warrior of Light.

I have no problem with new jobs having no starting class or doing something like making the transition to the ARR jobs easier by removing the requirement to level another class. I could also see SE making the transition mandatory by capping classes at 30. I would just be sad to see the class stories disappear entirely.
