I've never been happy with the beast tribes' state in-game. But fine, let's entertain this line of thought. Honestly? I actually DO think it was a mistake to change the language, because fantasy racism was always present in the game and was never failed to be looked at as "this is bad, and we should change it" hence the wake-up call of Lalas being "beast tribes" in Shadowbringers. By erasing history's mistakes we are doomed to repeat them, and I don't believe we ever truly did enough in the narrative to have the tribes magickally forgive hundreds of years of bloodshed, conflict, and petty grudges. Hate me for that stance if you will, I care not a whit.
    i mean, the dragons and ishgard forgave each other and ended a thousand year war so why is changing beast tribe to tribal such a bad thing after everyone ingame began to work towards a better future?

    Only because we forced them to. The Warrior of Light, banging stubborn loggerheads together for fun and profit since 1969~

    In all seriousness, none of that would've happened had the Warrior never Arrived to Ishgard. You cannot discount our part in this. As for the tribes, well clearly you did not pay close attention to what I posted. Obviously this is just my opinion, but I didn't see us do nearly enough work or foster sufficient goodwill to make them all drop their preconceived notions of how we'd be. At best, we cured a tempered Kobold or three. I just believe that if they wanted us to come away NOT thinking that the tribes magickally woke up one morning for the Eorzean Small Council and said "Hey, these Eorzeans are actually pretty alright!" out of the Bismarck Blue then they failed to show it properly.

    P.S. Why do I feel more like a mother than an adventurer half the time? Damn Eorzeans, can never solve their own sheiss....

    i do realize we broker (and sometimes force...outright strongarm in ishgard and the dragons case) most of the change but once it got rolling everyone started to change to make it work. heck, limsa lominsa abandoned all forms of piracy and began returning land in order to make peace with the sahagine and kobolds.

    edit: i feel more like a janitor than a dad. always cleaning up calamities and grudges. and paid like one in return.
