    Let's use your example:

    I know zero about star wars so if I seen multi colored Lightsabers I'll just assume they're just different colored sabers with no meaning, yet I can guarantee someone who KNOWS more about star wars will gladly "correct" me in saying they're held by different rank/entities of the Jedi which generally means they're of a different skill level or position, correct?

    Final Fantasy isn't the only series out there, but it is one of the most referenced series just like when someone talks about Sci-Fi they proclaim "Star Trek" or "Star Wars" yet they're clearly not the only Sci-Fi series out there.

    I'll go ahead and update you just based on the KOTOR lore i know

    When a Jedi first construct their lightsaber they are drawn to a lightsaber crystal that resonates with their own Force Energy. The color of this crystal is usually similar to the color of the type of Jedi they are. Jedi Knights are Light Saber Specialists and gravitate to Blue, Jedi Consulars were masters of the Force and prefered using force powers over the Light saber, they gravitate to green.

    After KOTOR most of the caverns where light saber crystals could be found had be stripped clean and new jedi had to Forge a crystal using their own force powers. Luke Skywalker did this.

    I have to thank Square-Enix for the amazing job they have done recreating Final Fantasy XIV from Scratch. Especially the inclusion of Missing Genders which we petitioned for in good faith. This was proof to us players that the Developers are truly Sympathetic to our requests and that being honest and vocal can pay off with the amazing characters we have who are Female Roegadyn, Male Miqote, and Female Highlanders. Thank You SE, Thank You Community Team, Thank You Yoshi-P.

    That's is what I was trying to say all along. That's why they don't name it that way, not in the lore nor in the games and other products.
    Blue mage doesn't have any meaning to me as a newcomer to the Final Fantasy series, that's why I'm dissappointed when they use it as a name.

    Maybe it is one of the most referenced name in the fantasy genre of games, but it isn't an excuse in my eyes to force dull and meaningless names like colored mages down people's throat, whether they are new to the genre or not.

    No, They named them Jedi Knights and Jedi Consulars because thats the LORE OF THE FRANCHISE. LOLS BRILLIANT CONCEPT
    Now let's be honest a name such as jedi knight or jedi consular even outside of that lore makes more sense than colored mages...
    And I think I said this before in the thread but don't bother abusing capslock since my eyes are good enough to read.
