I thought dragon warrior was buccaneer related o_o
When Jett was being released I remember people saying they hoped it wasn't just a reskin of Dragon Warrior. The link skill of Dragon warrior was also known before we discovered what Jetts was. I don't know which came first, really, but Shakar's blog mentions this:
It has a mix of both corsair and buccaneer skills, like Jett does. You'll see "octopunch" in 3rd job and tornado whatever in 1st job, as well as rapid fire/eight-legs-easton in 4th job.Jett has Core Arua, Dragon Warrior has Treasure Box Blessing. They are the same skill with the same icon, except the icon is more appropriate here because the icon IS Dragon Warrior’s Treasure Box. Thus, we can safely assume that GMS was the one who copied CMS, not the other way around.
Why do we have to call it copying? Couldn't it have been a collaboration between certain continental servers?
Shakar is a plum, sourcing him is hilarious.
People associate release date with exclusivity and ignore the production process, which is a relatively new variable in the exclusivity mix which arrived with visitor PQ and again with jett/DW. Visitor PQ debuted in TMS before it did in GMS, while GMS got the superior version due to time traveler medals. GMS announced visitor first.
Now with jett, GMS announced it first through dev blog. TMS released DW first, with GMS getting the superior version due to vastly less amounts of SUCK.
So what makes this content exclusive when it was obtained and released elsewhere before us? The fact that we (NexAM) did most of the development, planning, and announcing it far before TMS could have.
Only thing I'd like from this is the time travel feature. No need to get rid of old NLC.
Actually, take a look at this little gem from the official TMS Dragon Warrior site.
From the link above, you scroll down to the middle and click the second option, as highlighted in red in the picture.
For me, the thing that proves Dragon Warrior to be the original... copy, is the link skill. It looks exactly as the one DW gets in the cutscene's art of their story. At the same time, Jett's link skill is supposed to be an aura from the core, but it has no relation to the core except for the name.
Because Dragon Warrior/Zen and Jett arguments reminds me of Ninjabread Man and Anubis II.
