Your reactions to the Vana'diel reveal and the Limited Job were pretty much mirrors to my own.
I'm very… concerned about Limited Jobs, generally speaking. After the last two BLU updates it really feels like SE doesn't know what in the hell to do with them, and isn't particularly inclined to actually make engaging content with them. The Masked Carnivale was very cool for the initial release and HW but then fell off. The spells added in the most recent update were so… lame? It's really sad that so few spells have riders on them that impact how they function if you've got Aetherial Mimicry on. There's really an illusion of choice with your spellbook too because if you're actually trying to engage in serious content then you have a pretty obvious build with specific spells you have to slot, and by the time you do that you're left with like 2 empty slots to choose from. It just really feels so lame.
Truthfully, I wish they would've used the Limited Job system as a way to introduce wacky jobs into being real jobs, by starting them off in gimmicky niches that they allow players to fuck around with while slowly bringing the jobs up to par and offering a "normalized" rotation via engaging in some kind of submenu that lets you take it into normal content. For Blue Mage it'd really be as simple as putting an option in your Spellbook that gives you a standardized rotation, etc.
I'm hoping the new Limited Job is BST or PUP because they're the only things I could see as being remotely interesting for being a limited job. At least with those two you have some "collection" aspect and overworld interaction with things, but even then… man, it sucks that the Devs are so hardcore laser focused on one vision of their combat philosophy and so conservative in how they interact with it without taking risks.
yea a waste like watching this reaction
new limited job is a waste of resources? says who? to some people the graphics update is or hell even Viper would be considered a waste of development resources bc some people wont play it.
just bc it's not your cup of tea, doesn't mean it shouldn't be in the game.
Well there's a name I remember from the Pet Food Alpha days!
After they announced Echoes I will admit I went way back into a nostalga wave. So I ended up here. Lmao
Really excited for Viper, looks fun but I don’t think I'll be able to stop talking about that raid coming up. So many characters, bosses, armor and music that could be included. Super excited. Glad to see you are too. The whole expansion gives me an Adoulin vibe with some Aht Urghan thrown in.
Only issue, is what I agree with you there. Limited jobs are kind of eh? Like for content is fine and I see the appeal but if it ends up like BLU, not sure it is for me. Just something they update every expansion life span and then is forgotten. Bleh.
Now, any music or things from XI you want in the raid?
