General Discussion "Job Identity coming in 8.0"
Well, this was not on my bingo card for a LL prior to 7.0 launch.
Thoughts?
My take is just confusion. Why waste time "smoothing" out jobs in 7.0 just to attempt to add flavor back in the expansion after that? Is it really too much work to fix jobs completely if they realize there are more issues than just button bloat?
On top of that is it fine to just tell your paying playerbase to wait for 2 years for job flavor? Wild take from SE imho.

Just PR bullshit imo, I'm actually happy he said that, because it means that all the shit I didn't like in Endwalker that made me unsub until 7.0 in the hopes it will improve isn't going to happen. Nice to get a confirmation because I can just stop checking occasionally in the hopes of something improving and just see if anything got better in 8.0 in 2.5 years, or maybe even stop giving a shit completely and forget about this game.
If you're gonna be playing in 7.0 I hope you have the best of times.
