Dark Knight has been anticipated by the RP community for a long time coming. There'll be some "nerds" who jump onto the flavor of the month, but I think it's doing a disservice to say that most people here doing it for that reason. We've known DRK was coming officially for months now, and some folks had already been setting the path for them to take up the iconography of the class. Remember, we only just recently got the lore drop for what they do, and there's still question marks around it.
Folks have been RPing invisible greatswords since folks have been RPing in XIV. Some folks have been slowly turning their RP towards Ishgard to see what develops there. I know of one guy who's been killing corrupt Ishgardian officials since before it was cool, dating back to last summer.
Besides, great swords are cool.
