That is only a fundamental aspect of single-player Japanese RPGs, mind you. SE has enough experience with so-called "banned jobs" by observing behaviors in their previous MMO, FFXI.

[satire]Personally, I think that SE should go the way of Korean MMOs with levels of difficulty for jobs. Of course, they'll have to gender/race lock those jobs like every other Korean MMO I've played. So, you're forced to play a female Viera for the Reaper job, and then have to Fantasia to a male Hrothgar if you want to play as a Warrior. Makes sense to me ...[/satire]
