I don't say that out of some cruel desire on whoever is making it either (don't want to make anyone feel bad or threaten subs and what not, just trying to convey as a blue mage fan of other games I feel more like an ex-blue mage fan here). If some people think this is awesome I suppose that's great for them and SE has done something good (not everything has to please everyone), but my feedback I guess is "I was worried before release, I was worried and sad after release, and now I'm potentially more worried".

Still have to see what the new skills are, job quests, and what else the log has going for it, so there is a lot of room for "more info"- and so I'm not fixed on any feeling, just a quick take (and up for change) feeling on reading the changes coming to blue mage.

Aren't all FFXIV jobs disappointing from their counterpart to XI?

I feel you on how XIV messed up your favorite job, I definitely feel that way about XIV Dancer, and XIV red mage and XIV Summoner.

I love being able to dual welding, able to heal, buff and debuff, there so much more and it feels so satisfying to play, I'm having a really good time and it's so much fun.(DNC/WAR)




XIV Dancer feels very boring to play and uninteresting, I dabbled in it a few times and got one level up and never touched it again. Sad as I was hoping it was great. It I will never touch it again.

To be fair it is different games, I guess XI battles and the world feel more engaging than XIV and I just started XI like last year lol.

Just waiting for XI remastered or big news for XI 20th anniversary
