    Bland Mage

    Self explanatory.

    Another one bites the dust.

    It really does feel like “You’re having too much fun. Stop that.”
    I wish XIV private servers were a thing. I’d rather play a Shb/EW era private server than this.

    I really thought BLM was future proof prior to DT's release, but it seems I was quite wrong. (unfortunately)

    Nah, you see. Square is just giving us a little preview on job direction coming in 8.0. Friction and Fail States? That's old-school gaming. This is the current. New. Modern. Everything must be a shiny, smooth amusement park ride. Emergent gameplay and skill expression need to be kept to a minimum. The players don't bother to learn how to play anyway, right? Donny "Single Target" Doton needs to be able to compete with those ELITIST raider (Or so Donny thinks). So why not kill 2 birds with 1 stone?

    Really, Stormblood showed us the direction the game was going in. The 5% role bonus's creation after that expansion was entirely to make sure you could no longer not bring a Caster, while also allowing them to ignore the massive balance issues between roles due to being forced to take a shit role like Phys Ranged. You know, instead of making those jobs interesting to play so they can be allowed to deal equitable damage to the other roles.

    It PROVED that Square had grown complacent and lazy all the way back then. But no. It took 1 bad story for the rest of you to clue the fuck in, and now we're here. At the end of a road. Seeing a preview of the future.

    Name of BLM come 7.2 will now become GrayMage, because there's no longer a clear difference between any other job. Also WhiteMage is now also GrayMage xD

    This makes me wonder how the upcoming phone game is going to tackle this.
