    Whoa Sunken temple of Qarn arabic word!

    Qarn means centry in arabic plus the boss is from old Egypt calture

    never thought i would see something like that especially in RPGs that developers intrested in old arabic cultures

    good job SE

    off-topic

    i also amazed from huge difficulty tune up just from 3 levels difference between brayflox and Qarn

    looking forward seeing more and more harder quests and runs

    Final fantasy has tendencies to write it's lore from many cultures. I'm not too surprised to see them pull from a culture that is much more involved in the First world these days.

    I agree, good job SE.

    They had djinn in FFXI, those are from Arabic folklore. Also, Bahamut and Gilgamesh are both from Mesopotamian lore.

    Doesn't surprise me in the least. Final Fantasy has always borrowed names and creatures from various religious/mythological stories from around the world. I wouldn't be surprised if FF was the #1 Mythological Name-Dropping Franchise of All Time.

    There have been references to other cultures/religions/ heritage in almost all Final Fantasy games and other RPG's too. For instance Aht Urhgan from FFXI had themes from the Middle East and from South Asia (India, for instance the provinces of Punjab and perhaps Rajasthan).

    I agree though, it's really cool that they include such references! =) I think it makes the game a much better experience and allows for research outside the actual game too.

    Just about everything in any Final Fantasy comes from real life mythology from Summons, Boss names, Places, Mobs and many more which is why I really enjoy FF series.
