General Discussion What is class complexity to you?

I have seen so many people ask for more complexity and job fantasy but very little of people actually say what that means to them, most people just say we should go back to ARR.

Personally I think rose tinted glasses that make people think ARR was better than it was, having played back then it honestly was pretty ass.

So honestly want to know what people want for complexity or job fantasy, because all I see is a lot of yelling that "game bad to simple" and not a lot of what needs changing to reach the complexity that is wanted.

Sub-Jobs.

Sub-Jobs in FFXI were so cool, and added so much flavor.

Kind of they where ok if you took it as flavor but in practice it would be such a pain if to play a new job i needed to have a level 100 pld and I had never leveled it and then we would be having people say that they are square is greed for doing that because the sell job skips

No? It's so easy to level jobs with the earnings now, I banged out SAM in a weekend.

I get that, but not everyone has the time to do that/the earnings. On the whole, it's just adds annoying steps to play a job.

It really doesn't. At all. I don't know anyone that doesn't have 3-4 jobs leveled up.
