Richard, Gareth? I really wish they would have called him Rico.

Wow, was I the first person to find out he was calle Gareth? yay! gimme medal! I guess that's because most people started FFI before II on Origins....

Anyway, on the ROM I played, Mindu was Ming-wu, so meh

Also,
Ka'sion is there, but I don't know the old name

Josef is Josef still.

That's really because it's not pronounced "JO-sef." It's "YO-zef."

Ka'sion? I think it was the town called Kashuon originally...

'tis the place where Gordon first joins the party.

Okay, now that I've had some actual time to devote to playing FFO (yes, I'm WAAAAAAAAY behind the bandwagon) there actually WERE some changes that I noticed. The OddEYE was renamed "goggler" which was called Evil Eye in the original. Also, they NAMED the Dwarf Cave..... Huh? The Japanese version it was just called "Dwarven Cave", where did they even come up with "Mt. Duergar"? And how exactly do you get "Gnoma" from "Earth Elemental"?

Oh well, the game still rules *goes back to playing it*

And how exactly do you get "Gnoma" from "Earth Elemental"?

It's Greek (probably Latin as well) for Earth. Incidentally, that's where the word "Gnome" comes from, as Gnomes live in the Earth

The names of all the elementals in FFO have similar origins. Pyros, Aquos, Aeros...
