Trivia

• All NPC names are displayed in English regardless of what the client language is set to. This is a nod to Final Fantasy XI where NPC names are displayed in a similar fashion.
• The maps for the setpiece area Lower Jeuno and all raids are styled after FFXI maps. Similarly, most of the music, enemies, and attack names are also from FFXI.
• When enemies are casting an attack, they use the casting animation from FFXI (orange orbs and lines moving into the user), rather than the FFXIV casting animation (lines of golden light or lightning bolts rising from the ground).
