    Default Knight vs Warrior

    Do you think these two jobs are pretty interchangeable? What differences are there? What are the similarities? Which do you prefer?

    I like Warrior more for the simple fact that I feel like Knight should be more of a career, like Steiner, as opposed to just a job class, like in tactics or whatever. I find them pretty interchangeable though

    I never really gave it much thought. I guess I have always assumed they were the same.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    In terms of FF, they are the same thing that are only termed differently because of translation preferences. Having said that, I do feel that Warrior does sound more basic and Knight implies that class is more elaborate.

    Generally warrior has connotations of a generic fighter skilled in many weapons, whereas a knight goes more towards chivalry/protector of the innocent. Generally knight and paladin are quite close.

    Warrior has a slightly more offensive connotation, whereas Knight has a slightly more defensive connotation. Both love swords, shields and armor. I prefer warriors.
