    I like the Twinblade portion, but I feel like a second dual wielding job could have been something other than 2 blades again.
    It really felt like they just recycled NIN’s 1-2-3 with RPR’s burst

    Slash slash slash, power up, big slash

    You can basically imagine exactly how the job will play from that and the rigid adherence to the 2 minute meta

    It's kind of hard to tell by the 40 secs alone, they just showed a combo and a burst. I'm hoping they do go through FF9's and let get in trance or something. But it's really just hopium cuz I can also see them fitting it into the 2 min meta. That animation doesn't evel feel unique since I feel like I saw it in monk already...
