please no more new jobs

[Avoidy]

Disregarding my personal feelings on the topic the reality of it is that Jobs (and new races) sell expansions.
If we stop doing both of these, as threads on this board suggest, 8.0 and beyond look like really tough sells.

Can I be real a minute? Yoshida could have packaged DT as a box full of human waste and people here would still defend it and buy it on day one. I don't know the exact figures behind it, but there is a massive segment of this game's population that just buys whatever is in front of them regardless of the quality. I know it's difficult to imagine that somebody like this exists (it was for me until I started coming here and looking at posts on the subreddit and XIV twitter) but there are people who only needed the closeup of graha biting a taco to know that they were gonna buy DT day one zero questions asked. The bar is looooow right now, my friend. The bar is in hell. The bar is playing limbo with Satan atm. I have 0 doubt in my mind that they could churn out an expansion pack with a few fanboy cutscenes, no new jobs, and no new races and people here would buy it for the full price while defending it.

The only real question is what percentage of XIV's population are conscientious consumers and what percentage are just fanboys who will buy whatever is in front of them. I'll leave that for you all to decide for yourselves.
