It's just you.
More like Rhalgar BUT a tiny bit... yeah
I did think there was something of a resemblance there, but it's probably just the fact that his shorter hair is in a similar style.
The fact that they fused him with Ixion, is, interesting.
Fun Fact: In Greek Mythology, Zeus tricked Ixion into copulating with a cloud in the shape of Hera, and the product of this union was the race of Centaurs. Ixion was then struck down by Zeus's thunderbolt for copulating with his wife's likeness as a cloud...
Ramuh was the primal of the Sylph, in mythology they are air spirits...
It's Zeus, if he were at all reasonable, at least 70% of problems in Greek mythology could've been avoided.
I'm more bugged at how his lower half doesn't color blend well with his upper half.
It's not just you. At first glance that is exactly who I thought it was, then I was like "oh right, Eden...Ramuh. Got it."
He resembles... a lot of things.

I'm starting to think the WoL/WoD doesn't have a bad memory, he's just lazy.
A lot of people probably did a fair amount of drinking after Ramuh EX, especially after farming him for horses, so some fuzzy memories are forgivable.
I'm more surprised he isn't a sylph fusion to be honest. Especially given the fact that we actually get to talk to Ramuh one on one during the MSQ right after dealing with extended sylph shenanigans that not even the WoL could forget the frustration of.

To put it bluntly we were robbed. Give us our tiny bearded gremlin SE.
I always referred to Ran'jit as "Discount Ramuh" ... so ... yeah? But the other way around.
After the first round of Eden, I was wondering what we'd been smoking or ingesting to come up with Levi and Titan... and why we did even more for this round!
Isn't Ramuh a Hindu god and Ixion from Greek mythology. Not sure how it makes since to combine them.
I mean... FF has a history of taking interesting mythology characters and twisting them into their own image. To the point that they really don't represent their original culture in the slightest either. Garuda is Hindu as well but his FF incarnations are wildly different from how he's depicted in mythology. (Though to be fair Garuda's appearance differs depending on the culture portraying him and the tale.)

FF14's Garuda is also now sharing a Normal Raid floor with Ifrit who is Islamic in origin, so it's pretty clear the FF14 dev team doesn't have an issue mixing and mashing cultures together.
I was kinda hoping he would be a giant muscular man inside an even larger muscular beard...
We will also get this Ramuh as the savage mount, so you can even ride on him.
