    Wrong pronoun in quest text

    In the quest "Frozen Hope" the text reads:

    "[7:13]Fourchenault: But Luna here and his companions refused to forsake those we were otherwise unwilling to save. With great risk to themselves, they achieved the impossible, and opened my eyes to the error of the Forum's decision."

    My character is female, have not fantasia'd since 3.0 and even then I stayed female.

    Just had the same thing happen to me where my female character was referred to as male in the quest dialogue

    It's shameful, honestly.

    I had the same issue with my female character just now. I'm guessing that bit of dialogue is missing a tag for gender check.

    Poor Hojo, as if being a bunboi wasn't effeminate enough



    And I know thighlanders are intimidating, but I'm not quite as masculine as my emotes lead to believe.

    It's probably because the game priorities the Japanese language first. There would have been no difference at all in this part in the Japanese version. Unless Derplander is a young 15 year old boy or a female butch tomboy, the pronoun in Japanese would be exactly the same

    Considered making a post about this when I caught this localization error during this quest, but decided to search the forums a bit, and indeed found this thread. Of course, this isn't that big of a deal, and the fix to it is even less of a deal from their side, I'm sure. In other words: literally unplayable, devs plz fix ASAP.

    Variable text is programmed directly into the script. The Japanese version has no bearing on whether the English version will insert a variable.

    The pronouns are switched for male/female with emotes as well. There must be some coding mix up the has everyone reversed.
