Never thought of it from that angle. That's a great comparison and one that I don't have to think about. Xenoblade/2 I never thought for a second about positionals because the game didn't put obstacles in your way to fulfill the gameplay. It was almost invisible to complete positionals in Xenoblade because like you said that game was built around that aspect of battle. FFXIV in a lot of ways is the reverse of Xenoblade. The Boss moves you have to reposition to avoid damage. Makes me think about Blitz and how it will be incorporated into MNK's overall design at 90....ugh...media tour needs to come NOW!
