Like many FF games, it’s set in the futuristic Middle Ages (stone-punk? lol), and it’s English version makes incredibly beautiful and fitting use of old English (old English/Middle English, you know what I mean) and the grammar/vocabulary that was associated with it. Tie that in with the fact that that type of older English was used in the [late] Middle Ages, and you’ve got a game made by the Japanese that actually ends up best-suited for an English-speaking audience, even if only for the sake of the story/dialogue.

I sincerely can’t imagine FFXII coming off as better in its storytelling/gameplay/experience in any language other than English. It just seems to me that FFXII as enjoyed via any other language would simply “break the illusion,” so to speak.

Does anyone here agree or disagree?
