I haven’t played many final fantasy games since about 8. My favorite is ff5 with the job system, are there any newer games that are similar to that?

    If you’re interested in other series, you might like Octopath Traveler. Each character has their own job, but as the game progresses you’ll be able to switch each character’s second job. So you can make the thief a thief/merchant or thief/cleric or whatever, and swap out that second job anytime you want, but they’ll always have the thief abilities.

    Bravely Default II is exactly that. I finished a 100% playthrough last weekend and I highly recommend it. It totally scratched that classic FF job system itch. I’ve played first game as well, and while the it’s fine on the surface, there’s an infamously poorly constructed chapter towards the end that totally soured the whole experience for me.

      Wow I was expecting something similar, but to have almost a carbon copy of the classes is crazy. Thanks for the suggestion.
