Thread: RDM 7.4 changes and job identity

People being "crybabies" was the entire reason why we got Paradox in ice phase back. Would you say that was unneeded?
If we stopped complaining about job homogenisation then we will end with the absolute bottom of job design.

And the "bit of a hit to class identity" wouldn't be so bad if we didn't have additional hits on the road till now with other jobs.
Like I said before where do you draw the line?

The reason why you see so much pushback nowadays even for small simplifications or things that are actually qol is because there simply is no trust left in the devs given their track record of designing around only the high end raids nowadays.
If we see those simplifications here now, why should I trust in 8.0 being different anymore?

I don't want my game be watered down to one button wonders and simple AOE dodging just for the sake of fight design.
You are basically saying that each of us who enjoyed planning around those things like melee range or Enochian timers should shut up go away.

People can like those changes and the others but I am selfish in that I want to have fun with the jobs like I actually had before, only to see what made those jobs fun for me get more and more eroded away for the sake of others.
