Honestly, not only does something need to be done with it, it needs to have some kinda foundation that feels good to do, like really good.. The reason open world feels dead to me is what we are given in the open world doesn't feel that rewarding to do.. most things you spend hours gathering don't even sell that well compared to minions and other things you can get from dungeons, I'm a little scared to start blue mage as it makes me worry it to late to get alot of the things due to them being "instanced" locations, if we got a fresh limited job that starts at lvl 1 it would really make me feel more comfortable with starting blue out (And blue mage is really my favoirt final fantasy job after summoner (but smn doesnt feel good here to me)

I just think we need a hidden reward baby for secret housing or even hidden glamors or something that feels just as good as poping into a q and getting that one thing lol
