Lodestone update server names revealed

[Biggs]

really? i always like the name Balmung sense Dot hack anime and the first 4 games and thought it was cool that they made a world of it. Did some wiki search i did not even knew it was use as a wep in ff history or ffxi as a great sword too now.

Not suprising. I think Durandel was another name they used in the Front Mission games, not sure if it was ever used in a FF, but if I had to bet I would say it was. I think that, while TOTALLY not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, it just seems like a shame to be trading some sweet names we have now for this list. But like I said, it won't change gameplay or community at all so w/e. Seriously though, I Balmunged your girlfriend last night, and she loved it (totally Kidding!) YOU SEE though!????

I'm quite happy with Balmung, and I'd even have liked the name Sargatanas. Masamune and Ridill, however, no way I'll be caught dead on.

First reply nailed it. Sargatanas is annoying to say out loud, but as long as get the option to change servers when 2.0 hits then I'm good.

Durandel was use in FFXI lol and X and XII as other Great Sword but this time only for PLD in ffxi and other games it said to be the most powerful wep. I like all the world name should i like the one selbina got and some other people got like Balmung seeing how that was great memory from dot hack.


@Incarna you can switch next month to any world you like if you dislike the name

What is stopping your from changing now? If it's your LS/friends, do you really think it's going to change with 2.0?

Gungnir huh? You've got to hand it to Japanese game developers, they're the main ones who use words and names I've never heard of which then causes me to look them up. They're making me learn more is what I'm saying.

The name of Odin's polearm and appeared in ff11 and ff13 (there was likely an earlier occurance, but the older ff's are hard to track down.)

Odin's weapon. Name was used a lot in ff series :O

Now "Sargatanas" hasn't been used at all that much in the ff series, so it doesn't really rock my boat :/
