Really was offended when they called my Chocobo a horsebird though... I'll consider me training them in Eorzean to be a failer if they don't call them chocobos at least once.
dammit.. I was going to do my laundry but I stumbled across a twitch channel called Geeks and Sundry. Matt Mercer DM's a Dungeons and Dragon 5.0 group called Critical Roll on there.
Holy ***I have not laughed that hard in a looong time.
Every week, thursday they play DnD and upload the VOD to their site.
That's what they were called in Japanese in 1.0 lol, the JP fans were pissed at SE for doing that so they made it a joke in English for 2.0
Correction, that's what they were named/translated by the 40ish chinese programers back in 1.0 when SE had to add on a bunch of coders to fix things. The actual linecode of Horsebird made it back into the official JP game and it pissed the fans off.
I think instead of the usual katakana name chokobo they used the kanji "uma" and "tori" (umatori) (horse and bird) to refer to them instead and it pissed the JP fans off

Ah, alright. Pretty funny if you played 1.0 though, might be a bit confusing for a 2.0 player.
Yeah it was a real salt into the wound sort of thing to a lot of people because 1.0 had such a bad rep, when that 'translation' of chocobo was found and traced back to SE hiring outside coders from china, everyone started referencing 1.0 as a chinese quality product.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
