    I'm sorry, but while you may personally not like the titles that use "caster" the term is not confusing for everyone.

    The only thing you're doing is going off of a tangent for the EN localization not being a direct translation of the sacred language.

    It's clear you didn't read the OP and are just a mindless drone of the part referred to as Fernehalwes Defense Force. Which I thought was just an exaggeration made up but reading most of the posts in the thread that only showed up when Fernehalwes responded (weeks later). I did not automatically assume or claim the titles were originating or better in JP, I specifically said:
    Maybe I'm just one of few who find these to be done way too liberally when it comes to translations but a fair amount (by a fair I mean a lot) of the achievement titles feel really misleading or outright wrong in their english interpretations compared to JP/FR/DE.
    Nowhere was I playing favorites (other than saying the EN translations were inferior which frankly does come down to a lot of opinion after what Fern said in response). But it doesn't stop his reasoning and the result being inconsistent. As pointed out Green Eyes vs. Oilvert in a previous post for example and many others.

    The Ambitious Angler is an actual english title, I personally don't find the rest of the FSH titles to be equally good in english and misleading or ambiguous is irrelevant because most non-fishers in the game do NOT relate them to be with fishing at all and if we really want to go into detail of how Cast is the main action of FSH and hence why it should be Master Caster I'm grossly freaking offended by the title because by this logic, it just says you are a master button masher vs. being a legendary fisher in any other language. That's not what I think they aimed for with "Master Caster".

    You can't be serious.
