New MSQ title is way too spoilerly *spoiler warning*

[Ragology]

I'm just glad someone made a thread yesterday to disable the ability to see titles because of the spoilers, so that's the first thing I did when I logged in.

I'd be livid right now if not for that warning. I agree that the tile should probably be changed to something less spoilery.

I'm glad I did it as soon as it was live. I would be fuming with rage if I had seen that player title. Even now I refuse to wear it. I also fear people wearing it might get kicked from parties. Can you imagine someone wearing it in Balsars Wall? It's just asking for trolls to abuse it.

Greetings,

I'd like to share a comment from Koji Fox regarding this issue.

While the title was meant to be a reflection of the Warrior of Light’s role in the story, there is no excuse for my inability to realize that the particular choice of words would affect those players who had yet to complete the quest. As a result, my lack of foresight has marred the gaming experience of countless fans.

The current plan is to hotfix a new title in as soon as possible, with full awareness that this cannot undo the damage that is already done. I have spoken with Yoshida-san on the issue and have promised to personally work to ensure similar missteps do not happen in the future. We greatly appreciate the efforts being made by players who have already completed the quest to help ensure those who have not from being affected, and humbly ask that that everyone continues to do so until the issue can be addressed.

I once again sincerely apologize for this inexcusable error in judgment.

As this is something we will be correcting, I will be locking this thread in the hopes that we can minimize the number of people that are impacted. As Koji mentioned, we would appreciate everyone's continued participation in helping ensure your fellow adventurers avoid this by not using the title in question.

Good news though
