Discussing your 'unpopular' opinions

-Alphinaud and Tataru are the best NPCs period (also I ship them but shhhhh).

-So when Yotsuyu was still herself, everyone could recognize her but now she lost her memories, has a hat and no one can't recognize her anymore ? That's some lazy writing. And no it's not like Superman where his Clark Kent personality comes with lots of physical and behaviour quirks in order to fool people.
Also she didn't deserve a redemption arc. Fordola's redemption on the contrary is fine and logic.

-Gridania is a boring city.

This is pretty normal. There's tons of stories from celebs about how they usually don't get recognized just walking around. When people think of Yotsuyu, the first thing that comes to mind isn't her features, it's her wanton cruelty and sadism.

Oh quite the opposite with Yotsuyu/Tsuyu. People would recognize her, so they move carefully and try to draw as little attention as possible. In a big city like Kugane, it'd be easy to become just another nameless face (one of those "you look familiar. . ." kinda things), but back in Doma, people know her. They know what she's done. There's no way people wouldn't remember her face.

-I hate gunblades as a weapon type and think it should just stay in FFVIII (and thus hope a gunblade class is never added to the game)
-horse mounts have no place in FFXIV and instead chocobo mounts should replace them
-Kugane (but not Othard/Doma) was unnecessarily shoehorned into SB's storyline and could have easily been ignored without any real effect to SB's story.
-I actually like the Armoury System (base class upgrades to Job) as well as the old cross-class system
-the HW and SB Jobs should have base classes and start at level 1 instead of level 30/50

I mean, it's already an NPC class and several NPCs use the gunblade (Gaius, Nero, Regulus, Fordola) so I think it's a matter of time till we get one.

I both hope so, and don't. I'm afraid of what will happen to it.

I have to ask, why? People would have mindlessly grinded them through FATEs or PotD. Job quests, unfortunately, teach very little in how to actual play the respective jobs.

I'd have preferred it for two reasons.

It's consistent, I understand there has to be some gameplay and story segregation but I'd prefer as little as possible. RDM and SAM start at 50 purely for gameplay reasons.

And two, I wanted to see the class/job system expanded rather than scrapped. I could get really into it, but it's not the thread for it .

Master recipes should record completion status.

Yes..so much yes...it annoys me to see it without that. I like doing recipes and knowing that I finsihed them at least once. I cant say the same with master recipes and I dont really understand why..
