The English version of FFXIV has always been terrible. They screw up almost every reference to another FF thing, they're the only team that butchered the spell names across the board, and all the random NPC chatter comes off as them wishing they were writing for Game of Thrones instead of translating a Final Fantasy game.

I haven't played FFXI for many years now, but every time I switched between English and Japanese clients I ended up impressed by some decision the English localization team had made that I never would have thought of. Every time I switch in XIV (or just hear the difference in voiced lines) I end up disappointed.
