I ADORE the new Summoner!

Those cutscenes were one of my favorite things in all the final fantasy games, which is why I'm so confused we're getting neo-bahamut.

I 100% agree, I do NOT want a Bahamut mage. I want a SUMMONER. I want Shiva, Ramuh, Leviathan, Titania, Anima - I want all of the classic summons and I want new summons too! I know the devs are scared of button bloat, then make the Shiva / Ramuh / Leviathan replace Titan, Garuda, Ifrit during Phoenix phase. Give us a OGCD of Alexander for a party shield / buff. Give us more summons please!
What we just saw with another Elemental phase with the same summons and then Solar Bahamut was just more of the same. Might as well just have kept it as it is because the buttons I press will most likely be exactly the same as in the normal Bahamut and Phoenix phases, the primal will just look different.

I played Summoner since Shb and I like the new version very much as a good solid foundation to build on, to expand. But not by stacking just more of the same at the end of the rotation for Carby's sake. Explore more options for oGCDs with the Aethergauge and add more slots to that, include other primals that we actually met and have a reason to be there, give Carby a reason for existence... Many things you could do. Please do them.
