Incorrect spelling in Shadowbringers MDQ dialogue (SPOILER)

[Beastedness]

Following the Sin Eater attack on the Chrystarium, a wounded guard enters the infirmary during a CS and says "just desserts" but the spelling in the text box is "just deserts".

Despite its pronunciation, just deserts, with one s, is the proper spelling for the phrase meaning "the punishment that one deserves." The phrase is even older than dessert, using an older noun version of desert meaning "deserved reward or punishment," which is spelled like the arid land, but pronounced like the sweet treat.

Typically, whenever there's an unusual spelling spotted in this game, it turns out to be intentional.

A little ironic...

You should always look up the word you want to report in the dictionary before reporting it. You should also use the search feature in the forums to make sure it hasn't already been reported.

No, the game text is correct. Things that are rightfully deserved are just deserts with one S.
