DPS Simplification - Just do Ultimates!

[HikariKurosawa]

You're trying really hard to dodge the actual argument made, and its hilariously obvious. The argument about it being a business is pure nonsense, because they are already committed to adding new jobs every expansion. So I'll ask, again, why not just make new jobs to fit this so called niche of players that only want the most braindead of job design? Pictomancer could have been a 3 button snoozefest. Viper could have been a 3 button snoozefest. They did not have to lobotomize a job that already existed and utterly destroying its archetype to satisfy that niche when they are already designing new jobs.

New jobs, by the way, that still haven't filled the niche that Summoner used to fill. Want a DoT job? Get out, you're not welcome here. Want a pet job? Just wait for a limited job thats banned from doing anything relevant or evergreen. Wow what a great business decision. Truly what we should all be learning from.

Dots have always been the most unpopular thing in mmos and the majority dislike them. We have bard, we don't need anymore timer management based jobs. Music is all about timing anyway makes sense that bard is the one to manage timers.

There's no reason for any job to be TOO simple. There is a huge reason to make nearly every job simple enough. They are 100% aiming for a "goldilocks" level of job difficulty so that everyone is free to pick their own fantasy.

If you want hard content, PLAY HARD CONTENT. It's that simple. If you want something different, PLAY A DIFFERENT GAME. It's clear what the devs are doing and it's not going to change the way you want it to. You can "snip" my argument and ignore every point I've made as much as you want, but it's the truth and it's not even an inconvenient truth. It is good that it is the way I said it is. Just play harder content.

Also, old summoner was literally a bad job. Summons in final fantasy are not about pets and never have been. They are about a flashy short lived summon that goes away after doing its thing. Summoners are NOT about dots either. There is nothing in the job fantasy that even remotely relates to dots and it was just an evolution of the arcanist class that carries over into scholar and for some reason carried over to both jobs.

Dots are bad. The game has enough dots already. I don't mind if they make a new job that has dots, I just won't touch it and the majority of other players wont either because dots are the most unenjoyable gameplay ever. Most people like flashy nukes, they don't like dots.
