    Gogorano: Uneducated or Victim of Typo

    I'd find it hard to believe that this was never brought up before, but just in case it hasn't been:

    Gogorano: That gear'll get damaged one of these days. [When it do], make sure you come back to see Gogorano, hear?

    Should this be "does," or is Gogorano fond of ebonics?

    hey, moose-a-licious, moose au chocolat, the henchman moose-stafa...

    I've always thought it was part of his character. Sounds like he's a working man's working man. He's a good ol' boy not afraid to get his hands dirty. And ya know what, he had his chance to go to academy but chose to follow in his father's footsteps when the gilcounters tried to take the family farm. His widowed mother was sad about it, twelve rest her soul, but he'll create a better life for his children and their children's children.

    Wait... what was the question again?

    Though there is an argument for this being a bit of thick characterization, I dooon't think that was the original intention, and I am personally of the opinion that this is a bit much of a hiccup upon re-reading. So, I've gone back and changed it to "does," and the new text will go live in patch 1.22a. Thanks Moose, and sorry Delt! (fun read, though!)

    Anyone else want something done? Just get me to endorse the opposite and you get your wish. Works every time.

    Just talked to Gogorano. It was fixed. Anony Moose really ruins this game for everyone, doesn't he?

    Gogorano: You done good coming to Gogorano.
    (You did well coming to Gogorano.)

    Needin' repairs, are you? Weapons? Tools? Armor? We can fix it all here.
    (Are you needing repairs?)

    Gogorano: You got some gear what's seen better days? Gogorano's crafters'll see to it they're good as new in no time.
    (Do you have some gear that has seen better days?)

    Gogorano: Gogorano don't much like other crafters. Only take Gogorano's business.
    (I don't like other crafters very much. They only take Gogorano's business.)

    But you can use what facilities is here─if you got the gil.
    (But you can use what facilities are here-if you have the gil.)

    I fixed the rest of it for ya. Slip it in next patch~~~ Thx.

    I guess he really just us under-educated! Reading it all in paragraph form, the "when it do" and "what facilities is here" don't sound as stylistic... I bet they were intended to be written that way, but those two in particular seem forced and kinda broke the flow a bit.

    It's like the difference between "I ain't got none" (wrong but readable) and "son, I am disappoint." (dafuq?)

    Also, I apologize to all of the Gogorano enthusiasts for my shameless ruining of their FFXIV experience.

    Not sure if other people who got hung up on that line are quiet
    or if just ruined Gogorano for everyone...
