So I'm playing FFIII for the first time and the job system mechanic in it got me thinking about other job systems in Final Fantasy and I was curious what you guys thought was the best job system in Final Fantasy and why?
I've technically only played two games that has a job system: FFX-2 and (now) FFIII, so my opinion probably isn't the strongest. But I do really love how you can switch jobs on the fly in FFX-2. It means you make one character specialise in both offensive jobs like the Dark Knight but make them switch to a White Mage or Alchemist when you need healing.
I'm playing FFIII and it seems to be the opposite. It really wants you to stick to one job, what with the job adjustment phase and your job levels meaning you won't do nearly as well for a long time.
While it says 'Final Fantasy', I'm including Bravely Default in the poll as it really focuses on the job system and makes for a good comparison, I think.
