Necromancer: Discussion of the dead

[Reika]

I would ask that you please not misquote me. I was sating that the intentions of the primals are the intentions of the user who summoned it.

Also I should have made myself more clear. Right from the Final Fantasy Wiki (Source) disambiguation page:


Necromancer may refer to:

• A Job from Final Fantasy V Advance.
• An enemy from Final Fantasy V.
• An enemy from Final Fantasy VI.
• A summoner type enemy from Final Fantasy XI.
• The Job from Final Fantasy Airborne Brigade.
• An enemy from Chocobo's Dungeon 2.

Generally it is an enemy job. How can you refute that fact?

And this is what I was taking about in a different thread about "Things must be the same as other games" that people keep wanting that stifles the developers creativity. Who gives damn if it was generally an enemy mob or job in other FF titles. It doesn't have to be a traditional FF job to be a good thing to add to FFXIV.

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, it damn well better not destroy what Final Fantasy has been doing or they shouldn't be naming it Final Fantasy. I know most people want this as a generic MMORPG, but even Yoshida says he wants this as a Final Fantasy Fanservice title. Necromancers were generally enemies, but they also have enough importance that they were added as Jobs eventually or thrown into a large chunk of lore.

The bigger question is: How would they even do with in the corner they put themselves in with the armory system?
