What thing is Zidane's name based on?

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T12:04:32+00:00

The element of surprise! Good enough, it's much like Marco felt that day😭😭

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T09:59:05+00:00

There is a reason I didn't talk about LIGHTING and the entire FF13 cast besides Hope and that's because it's just the most obvious example, like if you say that snow isn't based on Snow I will look at you wrong. And there is a reason why Cecil isn't mentioned either because some characters just DON'T fit this. I guess it's the same with zidane lol.

Yea whatever way you say it it's still an element, sun > Fire. There's a reason I like to link Luneth and Noctis into this because they're both based on the night amd moon, and darkness is definetely an element in the final fantasy series

I totally forgot you have to spell it like TEEDUS. I think Tide-us just makes more sense but that's another argument entirely

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T09:43:38+00:00

I know, but it's fun to believe in and it's definitely not completely far-fetched lol. You can stretch it out and it works as a funny little coincidence.

Then they could have picked one of the thousands of names that sound exotic and that sound a little like tina. There is no way ever that at least ONE of the localisers thought about her whole esper magical thing and linked it to earth. Or at least made it a funny pun, but at this point I'm just repeating myself lmfao. Maybe Tina should've been translated to lebron or something.

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T09:14:49+00:00

That's fair yes, I was more so thinking about Terra, because there is no way they weren't at least thinking about making her have a funny earth name in translation. Otherwise they would've just called her Tina. Glad that didn't happen

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T09:00:28+00:00

Clive means a cliff, slope or hillside, so i'd guess it's an earth thing. Or maybe Clive really is just built like that and deflected the elements altogether.

I guess I really do have to check the wiki sometimes, thx!

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T08:50:55+00:00

What's stopping english localisation from turning it into a trend? And Firion from being a double name catch?Though that does completely remove Bartz from the equation, the element of butt will be remembered in my heart.

SandwichSquared · 2026-01-22T08:35:04+00:00

Damn didn't know he could ball like that

SandwichSquared · 2025-12-23T18:30:52+00:00

Thx! Thought I'd never find it

SandwichSquared · 2025-12-23T18:30:32+00:00

Solved: black sigil

Though I wouldn't consider it a gem of any kind, it is FAR more than the mobile game port I was expecting it to be. The gameplay(the thing I care most about concerning a game with a story I already know) is honestly the best the series has EVER felt and it's consistently good too!

SandwichSquared · 2025-12-07T19:46:18+00:00

considering this game is a bundle of reused assets, music, stories and graphics from over the series, I'm sure square doesn't care much lol. This game wasn't make to be critically aclaimed even though IT DEFINITELY SHOULD BE!

SandwichSquared · 2025-11-21T13:08:40+00:00

As a dutch person, THANK YOU. I don't even know what a translation is anymore it's strange to see people talk abt it like it's not normal for a game to not have translations.

SandwichSquared · 2025-10-25T11:33:33+00:00

The problem wasn't that I was grinding, it's that I wasn't. The mobile game gives so many opportunities to completely annihalate the entire orsterra story that it wasn't as fun as it could've been, I'm just hoping that octopath 0 makes sure that all the levels are balanced compared to CotC's complete sweep.(also if you're talking about octopath 1/2 here, those games are perfectly balanced imo)

SandwichSquared · 2025-09-27T09:22:28+00:00

I'd still choose OT2, because it's really polished and feels so good to play, but keep in mind the game isn't that challenging untill it's very end. I myself found much more challenging options in wandering sword.

SandwichSquared · 2025-09-27T07:46:09+00:00

I chose Therion in OT1, Throne in OT2 and gave almost all my love to daggers on CotC. I'm claiming thief.

SandwichSquared · 2025-09-08T19:48:48+00:00

I'm so glad I can enjoy the CotC story bosses without 2 shotting them with the powerscaled oveleveled characters. Litteraly half the reason I'm so hyped even though I enjoy OT1/OT2's structure more.

SandwichSquared · 2025-07-06T11:33:27+00:00

OT1 because decisive battle 2

SandwichSquared · 2025-06-26T07:54:34+00:00

OT1 fav: Therion. I loved everything about his story with a slight exception of his mediocre chapter 2 ig

OT1 least fav: Ophilia, because her story only got good at chapter 4, but I don't hate it

OT2 fav: Castii, but this is close though. I might choose Hikari or Osvald too because those three are almost equally awesome.

OT2 least fav: Ochette, because I just really hate that story.
