    A reminder that they at no point directly referred to any specific thing as "mundane".

    Would you have all made the leap of logic that they must be applying that description to in-game outfits as a way to sell their new one? Because I certainly wouldn't.

    The advertising people probably didn't even think of it. It's a fluffy phrase to sell a sparkly fairy gown.

    People also act like everyone who works on aspects of the game outside gameplay, music, tech and story are in Yoshi P's office daily. Whoever wrote the advert very likely did not walk up to Koji Fox on how to say something, nor the gear designers and explain how they would advertise in every language it came in. I bet they don't even know what the Neo Ishgardian gear looks like, because it's not their job.

    Their job is to advertise, and from the literally hundreds of people parading it right now, I'd say it worked. Because that's what their job is. Whoever originally wrote the Reece's Puff rap didn't even have to try the cereal. They could have, but their job was to write a jingle to make it sound better than every other competing brand. And that's what is happening here.

    "Go from Mundane to Marvelous", they are obviously talking to you since it's a call to action. They're not selling the product to the NPCs in the picture.

    I'm pretty sure its just a play on words. You guys are getting riled up over literally nothing.

    This argument only started because someone has a serious vendetta against Crystarium gear specifically. People are reaching so hard.

    If it was literally nothing, I literally could not get riled up over it.

    No, it is literally nothing. You chose to get upset by it. The advert is full of alliteration.

    If it's literally nothing, I wouldn't even be able to form an opinion on it because it wouldn't exist. Your downplaying this to an absurd degree with your mundane intelligence.

    Nice try lol. People form opinions on nothing all the time. It's how we know nothing is a thing that does exist. (because if you couldn't quantify something as nothing, it wouldn't exist).

    You are upset because they used the word Mundane. Meaning every day.


    I am very Mundane. I wear the same clothes every week, go to work at the same time, go home at the same time, eat the same dinner every day.


    I'm the very definition of Mundane. So again, nice try.

    My intelligence though, not so much, considering you seem to be the one struggling with definitions.


    Maybe see it for what it means and not what you think it means, and you won't be insulted every time someone uses a word you don't fully understand.

    Transform from a mundane human into a faerie queen? Marvellous indeed...
