Guardian's and Character Redesign

[Anonymoose]

That's... actually kind of a shame, really. The information you're given during character creation is only enough to pick which one leaves a good first impression, but you actually have to play the game to experience the lore required understand which one you really prefer.

I never even really thought about it until now, but that kinda sucks.

I know it's a relatively small deal, overall... but isn't the entire point of the ring to have that feeling of identity attached to it? Small deal or not, being pressured to choose between two uncomfortable positions in terms of player identity (giving up the attachment you have to the item itself from being there to summon The Twelve, or giving up ever begin associated with the Guardian you feel right aligned with) is... well, that kinda sucks.

To put it in a personal perspective, I've favored THM over my other classes since day one. SE says THM and Nald'thal go hand in hand - so I act accordingly. Then they add jobs, THM becomes BLM and now it's all about Rhalgr. Calamity hits, we summon the Twelve, I automatically have my ring chosen based on my antiquated choice. SE offers the chance to fix one but the other isn't worth the trouble?

I get it - small potatoes... but... (/scratches head) ...that kinda sucks.
