I, for one think the localization team does a great job with FFXIV.
As someone who is bilingual and has had to translate from one language to another, in my case, Serbian to English and vice-versa it is not an easy task.

People who complain about how "bad" the localization team is should go and try do what they do, even for a day, and then come here and qq.
Seriously, even when you don't get "fancy" with it translation is tough.
