I don't know if WoW did it before anyone else but they did do it a long time ago. Makes sense to know it was a mistranslation as I do remember it being a bit of a big deal back then.

I admit I wasn't surprised when it happened in WoW because that sort of storytelling happened in the rts games it comes from. It felt like an appropriate nod to its roots. But I was surprised to see it in FFXIV because I'm so used to cutscenes telling us the story from another character's perspective.
