Obscure references

I just realized that Biggs and Wedge are also the names of two pilots in Star Wars.. How the heck did I never notice it until now.

GO, GO, GORGIMERA!

They are all great. And even though someone mentioned they feel out of place in a FF game. Thing is... they are there for our benefit not the lore/story aspect of it other than a basic placeholder instead of "Quest 001".

The new Odin quest, Fear and Odin in the Shroud , looks like a reference to the movie Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

In southern thanaland there is a fate named "Blood, Augur, Hex, Magicks" a reference to a pretty old Red Hot Chili Peppers album.

This pun is originally from FF7, Biggs and Wedge were members of AVALANCHE

To add a few....I remember the "Iron Contra Affair" FATE in western La Nocea, obvious reference to the real life incident and the "Chill is Coming" FATE in Coerthas which is a pun to House Stark motto in the ASoIaF series...

Before that, Biggs and Wedge were in FF6...and before that, Star Wars. It *is* a Star Wars reference that has made multiple Final Fantasy appearances.

Actually Biggs and Wedge are originally from FF6. Although Biggs was mistranslated as Vicks.
