Questions about proposed changes

[Nori]

"Filler" implies that quests or jobs were relatively meaningless and only served to gain money.

That's 100% on the the writer. I used jobs as a very to both further my character and create zeni. Additionally, like I said, people didn't even have to do jobs to get zeni. A "job" that had nothing to do with your profession was a "quest." Quests could be, literally, anything. The only thing someone had to do was make a thread in the QSU forum asking for a grading. That was it. People still didn't do it. That was my point.

We made it as easy as we possibly could for people to get zeni and they just didn't do it. Of course it's going to seem like its hard to refill PP when no one has money because no one turned in quests.

This is hugely misleading as well. You have to "work around the system" (in this case it should be "use the system") in order to activate transformations often in fights against other people. PP is only spent when using a Power-Up to directly impact the outcome of a player-vs-player fight. The entire point of the system is to "limit the freedom" of someone to walk around winning fight-after-fight-after-fight because they have the highest-tier transformation.

It is intentionally restrictive, but only in a very qualified manner.

EDIT: I should state that I have no intention or expectation or changing your mind on this issue. If someone has just decided they don't like X, then they don't like X. My intention is to explain the function that the mechanic is intended to serve. I can safely say that it is only going to change as long as a similar mechanic is implemented to take its place.

It is 100% on the writer to decide what the job means to them, I agree, Kaden. That doesn't change the fact that the job system is forced onto people when it really doesn't have to be. For you it is integral to your character. For me, not so much.

Also, you didn't answer why the whole pp situation couldn't be solved outside of Zeni.

As for your edit, your not changing my idea because your not really saying anything different then what I already know you think. I believe a job shouldn't be forced onto people, it's that simple. I have yet to hear any reason why it HAS to be, other then "you can work it into your story or make it what you want".

I really don't know Ashe, i'm just voicing my lack of satisfaction with the job system, and how it translates to characters (arguably mine). I'm hoping that with the new system ideas people are presenting it will solve my objectivity, or at least make it better.

I'm tired of always picking regen because I hate having to earn Zeni. QQ.

Also, summoning? =3
