Stars are not Planets

[Freedom4556]

Calling a planet a "star" is common in Japanese entertainment, so I would be very surprised if the Japanese dialog doesn't do this.

In Japanese, the word for "star" (hoshi) is used broadly to refer to all celestial bodies, sometimes including the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth, and sometimes excluding them. In scientific contexts, more specific terms such as "fixed star" are used instead.

Venus is a planet, not a star, yet it is called the evening star or the morning star. Likewise, a meteoroid is not a star, but it is called a shooting star.

The Japanese, French and German localizations do not do this. The English is specifically being picked on. https://jp.finalfantasyxiv.com/dawntrail/patch_7_3/

惑星 is wakusei "planet" not 星 "star" I should not have to do the translation team's jobs for them.

惑星 is wakusei "planet" not 星 "star"

The word for "planet" in Japanese, 惑星, is literally "confused star".

Just like some real world planet names are "Fire Star", "Water Star", "Wood Star", "Gold Star", etc.
