Fran looks the exact same as FFXII Fran. It's bizarre.

"I don't like it."

"But...we put in Fran in the game exactly the way you wanted!"

"Yeah... but maybe it's TOO much like Fran. Do it over, and this time try not to embarrass yourselves."

Swear, one of these days, Yoshi-P's just going to snap and murder everyone at a Fan Fest.

I might not always agree with Yoshi P, but I don't envy him either.

lol that's funny because it's true. Most patches we have threads asking why this wasn't voice acted or why that wasn't voice acted,
Ok have an entire raid voice acted...
"too much voice. Must needs be muted"-_-

I do prefer the raid having voice acting feels more immersive and good voice work will always enhance things and to me they talked enough except TG who starts talking about 1 thing to have to quickly say another because the fight is much faster pace than his lines allow a mechanical failure not a VA failure

o_O Uh what? The classic Omega bosses are also blatantly ripped from Dissidia NT.

That only applies to Kefka. Exdeath is using Thordans skeleton.

It's supposed to be the XII Fran, because Ivalice.

Cameos work like that.

[Fynlar]

Wasn't it the whole point for it to look like the character she's obviously directly inspired from?


It would be more jarring for her to NOT look like what we remember.

[HyoMinPark]

I don’t see what the issue is with her model being taken from the XII remaster and put in here? It’s not like this is the first time they’ve taken aspects directly from previous Final Fantasys and put them in XIV.

[Slirith]

She's most likely a preview like Yugiri was before she removed her mask. Our version of viera are 90% sure to look WAY different compared to Fran.

[Haxaan]

The XIV Fran model is not a rip from XII. If you look back at the XII model she has longer arms, bigger hands and claws. The proportions of the body are slightly different as well. They definitely did a good job of making her look similar enough that she is recognizable, but made adjustments so that her body would fit into the world of XIV and it's gear restrictions.
