It’s time to start the job system

Right… so I spend 8 to 9 hours a day in a JOB… just to log in to a game so I can relax with a virtual JOB…

No thanks. If I wanted to work, I would get a 2nd job and actually get payed to do it.

Idk if you are making the obvious joke or not (I really don’t like how they named it jobs in FF14 either), but a job in FF14 is what is a class in WoW. What the OP wants is that we should be able to roll 1 character and have all the classes on it that we change like we change our specs.

Im not good with jokes…

I mean… why name it “jobs”. Sounds so weird. Must have been a bad translation from Korean/Japanese or something.

For the record, I disagree with this.

Let’s be honest, following final fantasy and there job system would be great, one character any class based on talents. We’re past lore and races, lgbtq+lmnop and all that, my character is a troll but it identifies as a blood elf. just give us one character that we can change the race and styling and talents.

Yeah lets throw all the warband changes and all that overboard, great idea.

WoW already has a job system in place it’s called RaiderIO

Feels like i am repeating myself…

WoW has enough xp in soloplay to raise 50 or more classes to toplevel (on one character), while FFIXV has enough xp in soloplay to raise maybe 3 classes to toplevel (on one character). If you play FFXIV and pick up all jobs, you will find boredom quite fast conscidering there is not enough xp to level them all up( you have to spam dungeons that does not give much xp) and there is not much to call daylies to get xp.
When you create your class in WoW, you will reach toplevel fast and wondering what to do with all the rest of the xp you left behind!?

Furthermore, in FFXIV, you collect all achievements on your first run up at the same time as you enjoy the game, all the following jobs will just surf the waves.

In WoW, you need to run up to top level plenty atimes with alts to collect all achievements whilst enjoying the game (otherwhise it will be a tedious repeatable and nongiving experience with your main that gains only achievements of it).

So… Blizz should give their game to Square Enix, and Square Enix should give their game to Blizz, if us customers are to enjoy the full extent of their games!

And SWTOR has the best player housing… Just for future referrence…

I agree, it will kill alts, and storage will also be a nightmare. I´ve seen hoarders having items they don’t even need on WoW x.x its terrible

Guilty!

This stems from all the way back in 1990 and Final Fantasy III (not released in North America at the time). Due to the limited amount of character space in the menus, Japanese ideograms translated to English words had to be short. What was “Occupation / Responsibility” (if I remember correctly) was chosen to be translated as “Job”. From there on it remained as a term used in future games as well despite those games not having the same technical limitation (FFV, FFTactics etc.), and FFXIV retained the term because fans of the series were accustomed to it.

-=EDIT=-
It’s the same reason why spell ranks in Final Fantasy were given numbers in English versions: Fire, Fira, Firaga, Firaja were initially translated as Fire, Fir2, Fir3, Fir4 etc.
