Oh nice another post based on your personal vibe check. You are so out of touch it's baffling, done with you.

That BLM was most played in 6.5

Check the log website, look at savage clears, ultimate clears and Ex trials clears. See the trend yourself.

Well there's your proof. Your turn to go back to your original request now. You got your data, now what?

And now it is again, almost like people don't play whats fun in savage and just follow the meta.

pretty sur that devs had better popularity data (regarding all type of content, not only raid) and this is why the change blm. So yeah... personnal opinion

Now nothing, it was the hard meta among all jobs not just caster. Means nothing. Top tier players played SMN when it was meta despite hating it. The majority of people who are "serious" about the game will always optimize the fun out of the game.

It's called FOTM for a reason.

can you have good raid/trial/dungeon design if don't think the jobs you're playing are fun?

After doing M6S, which is the best designed fight they have released since stormblood, I can safely say that for me the answer to this is no. I was bored out of my mind (granted I was playing tank, not like DPS jobs are any better though) despite how well M6S is designed. It turns out amazing fight design can't be fun if the jobs are so poorly designed and boring to play. If I had the old job designs from ARR/HW (or even SB) it would have been fun (I played countless hours of HW monk, by far the most fun I have ever had in a video game). So I've decided to quit raiding for the rest of the expansion and "soft" quit the game (will still log in for free log ins and maybe to do PVP every once in a while when I'm feeling it) but otherwise I'm done and will check back in for 8.0 to be disappointed again when they find a way to remove even more stuff from jobs.
