Yeah Mason, all the jobs are getting new abilities/spells, etc. and they are adding a bunch of new areas to the game, and expanding upon the nation rank quests and WOTG and all that. It seems like they are holding true to what they were saying about keeping FFXI alive for the people who want to play. They made a distinction early on that they felt FFXI was more for hardcore players, and they wanted to give those people who enjoyed FFXI end-game a place to continue playing and being rewarded for their efforts.
