How come the msq keeps using big words?

I can't believe the video games are trying to make me literate!

Quite often? Again I disagree. They're not taking that many liberties that we who play in English end up with a completely different game.

From the quests and fate names, flavor texts, to the dialects and level of formality, the localization is changing a lot, and if you listen to the Japanese audio with the English text, it's jarring. That can give characters very different impressions from JP to EN, for example Haurchefant, Estinien and Midgardsomr.

I know right!? How dare they use words. I mean supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Just a fun fact there use to be cartoons in the 1960s that taught you songs called follow the bouncing ball. Oh hey then there was Sesame Street and Electric company all designed to teach whoever watched it. Fun fact most stories or movies are designed to teach something, a moral or value etc. Doesn't matter if it's a movie, paperback or video game.
