Final Fantasy 14 launched its new Oceania information middle yesterday, lastly offering our pals down underneath with good ping and good vibes. However there was one thing else I hadn’t thought of with a brand new server launch—it is prime actual property for all of the frequent and meme names which might be often nabbed by veteran gamers.
Fortunately, these venturing over to the brand new information middle have not allow us to down with their model new, creatively named Warriors of Gentle. There have been tons of incredible names being shared throughout Twitter and Reddit—from large cults devoted to beloved NPCs to some traditional Aussie humour. I’ll say for NPC names there are a good few spoilers for all of the expansions floating round, so learn forward and benefit from the screenshots at your personal danger.
The most important one I’ve seen is maybe the massive following for main NPC G’raha Tia. I admittedly have a little bit of a gentle spot for the dumb catboy, and it appears everybody else does too. A few of my favorite variations have included G’day Tia, G’rubhub Tia, Nya’ha Tia and the bunny boy model: G’rahop Tia. There additionally seems to already be a devoted G’raha Tia guild, with tons of red-headed catboys operating round with the “GRAHA” tag.

Different NPCs have had a quick second to shine too, like everybody’s favorite fancy lad Uri Anger, Y’shtole M’coronary heart and the fantastically named Only Fandaniels, which can be the most effective one I’ve seen throughout each submit.
Outdoors of enjoyable twists on character names, there are some nice ones that faucet into the group hivemind. White mage character Pull Quicker can have tanks sweating in dungeons, whereas Skipping Cutscene was sarcastically caught whereas watching a cutscene. There’s been an enormous serving of Australian humour and references too, like Melbourne-brewed Victoria Bitter, Australia Put up, liquor retailer Murphy Daniels and the traditional Maccas Run.

The Last Fantasy 14 Twitter web page received in on the enjoyable, too—one screenshot displaying a robust stare-off between characters Last Fantasy and Amongst Us caught the developer’s eye, replying: “Do not say the road, do not say the road, do not say the road, do not say the road… (seems to be fairly sus!!!!)” It even received a cheeky follow-up from the Amongst Us Twitter, who mentioned “omg it is the critically acclaimed MMORPG Last Fantasy XIV.”
I’ve at all times had an odd curiosity within the names folks select for video games. Practically everybody has a narrative behind their character’s moniker—be that they took it from a TV present or sport they like, after somebody they care about, a pet, or just because they assume it is humorous. I personally go for lore correct names the place I can, however nothing brightens my day up greater than when somebody with an extremely daft title joins my raid or passes by me in Limsa Lominsa. Thanks, Oceania gamers for giving us amusing.
