    As you said the spelling change was most likely intentional, but probably to avoid another issue similar to what happened when the Crystal Tower was being released, the issue with "タイタン" vs "ティターン" as both would/could be Titan to an English audience; Audial cues for western languages vs Visual cues for Eastern languages.

    The image might open too small to see you just click on it in the wikia page and you'll be able to see it better.

    I like helping people with their Job ideas, it's fun to help them visuallize and create the job they'd like to play most. Plus I make my own too, I'll post them eventually.

    It is less about correct english translations and more just that it has nothing to do with adding Sephiroth to the game. Hebrew does not exist in FFXIV.

    "I don't want Sephiroth in FFXIV," is fine, but having to read constant, "but nael," "but sephirot," "but zenos," is getting tiring. No one needs to justify their opinion.

    I'm going to be different and hope it's Genesis from FFVII Crisis Core >.>'

    And just because each prior raid series has stuck to 3 tiers, doesn't mean Omega has to. Aren't people wishing they break some moulds? I figure they'll pull each stage/boss straight from Dissidia as they did Ex Death (right down to the model).

    Using any of the bosses from FF7 and above would be utterly retarded in my opinion, especially Sephiroth, the most basic, one dimensional villain in the series. It's bad enough to not come up with original bosses for content. The only reason I feel Kefka and other past Final Fantasy bosses get a pass is because they were in 2D with no current plans to make those games into remasters/remakes.

    In my opinion, there is a high chance that the last part of the raid revolve more around the lore of omega from FF14, (considering there won't be a 4th wing to this raid).
    For now we know that Omega is interested in the "heroes" who wakes in time of dire stress, so maybe, instead of fighting antagonists we could be confronted to heroes from previous FF or even have a return from the others warriors of darkness.
    If you pay attention to the lore told in Rhalgr Reach with the allagan thingy next to Jesse and Alpha, it is told that Omega was found damaged more than it should be, impliciting some fight before her fall. We also know Midgardsorm and Omega already met in distant past, so it would not be unlikely to have Omega having us facing one of the most powerfull foe she ever encountered, aka Midgardsorm himslelf.
    So if I think about it I would say:
    V9s : random Omega thingy
    V10s : Warriors of Darkness/other hero from a previous FF
    V11s : Midgardsorm
    V12s: Omega

    I thought we were going to stick to I or IV since they, along with V, were the FF titles--albeit in expanded versions--where we saw Omega (not Weapon). We ended up with some more VI fanservice, as much as I love VI (my favorite FF even), and will be dealing with Kefka, who may or may not do some fourth-wall breaking shenanigans.

    Honestly, I thought a certain dead someone was going to be brought back and start Kefka-ing it up for being so unstable (in addition to his old personality), but I digress.

    If Kefka in Sigmascape doesn't manage to create a harrowing plot twist that overpowers Omega in some way then my guess is we're going to see some of IV next since that was part of the holy FF trinity of the SNES golden era. Prepare to journey to the Moon.

    Genesis, reciting snippets of "Loveless", would be a fitting alternative!

    I bought a PSP way back when, for the sole and only reason, to play "Crisis Core".

    Personally, I wouldn't want Sephiroth here ...yet. We've been fanserviced big time with Exdeath and now Kefka. If Sephiroth were to make an appearance, I would hope they held off on him, at least in this expansion. If Sephiroth were to be an enemy, let him be a part of a different raiding patch that includes other iconic superbosses like Garland. I'm of the idea to have FF8 be next, because it seems like we're headed to Garlemald regardless and that area honestly has some potential with some of the FF8 bosses being in Garlemald. Fighting a constantly reviving X-ATM092 could be fun.

    That would mean that the Relics have a shorter questline or shorter time to finish than previous relics have had. Since SB relics wont be released until the .25 patch atleast. If they want to stick to the same amount of patches to finish the Relics as before, I'd imagine this xpac being extended.
