Job Quest NPC

[Alise]

I wonder how come all those job quests NPC that was died in 1.0 still alive here and nothing mention about they die?

I first did WHM, nothing special here. But then I did WAR, I noticed those berserk brother appear again. Then I did MNK, that male monk which was the boss we killed at v 1.0 also appear. Now I heard the old Dragoon NPC also re-appear again too? Hoe does the lore handle this?

It seems the Job quest dialogue/events have been virtually copy-pasted straight out of 1.0, with some slight variations (the initial PLD quest for instance just had the undead battle location switched and a slight change in the camera angle during the event afterwards) - but the dialogue is virtually the same word for word from 1.0.

Considering Jobs were only added into 1.0 towards the end of the game's lifespan, I don't find it surprising SE have just reused it, as it obviously saved them a lot of time and money, but yeah, it's rather contradictory to 1.0 players who already did those quests in 1.0.
