This frequency of English localization issues is unacceptable

[Doragan]

That doesn't really account for the European region being full of players who may discuss the game with friends from different countries only to easily find through casual conversation that the story is saying one thing in French or German and then something completely different in English.

I agree. I have been using the french voiceover with jp text, and both are pretty similar. However, when starting conversations with english players, it's like we were playing a different game text wise. ARR, especially.
Cid's tone is pretty different overall. Like, In Praetorium, when you get to the elevator after Nero, he says " You're too bloody useful to die! ", when in french and japanese, he will say " You better not die, alright? Please come back to us in one piece." in a warm tone. It's minor, for sure, but it adds up fast I feel.

I FFXIV uses in-house localization teams in order to have two-way communication with the story writers.

It's important to note that starting with Endwalker, SE outsourced part of FFXIV's localisation. Mind you, probably not all of it, but it wasn't the case before.
