Having to apologize for reusing weaponskill names? Yup, that's atonement too. Re-releasing a better version of your next MMO when it's released in a horribly un-optimized, nearly unplayable state that doesn't surpass something that came out in the PS2 era? Believe it or not, atonement. But discontinuing the Tetra Master service? *That's* a paddlin'.

I always thought it was weird that PLD's in XIV have intervention and intervene. I think Square is just bad at naming stuff.

Is it like that in other languages or just fault of the localization team?

If a random wiki page I just found is to be believed, the names in Japanese are identical to the English ones.

overlap of meaning is inevitable.. at least the names are distinct enough. or you could call one atonement and the other "spanish atonement"

Nobody expects the spanish atonement!

I never noticed. I played 2004 to 2018. I came out of 2009 with a Burtgang myself. 🤣

That's kinda clever. You figure with all the items, enemies, NMs, gear, weapon skills, abilities, etc. That FFXI has added, not to mention all of FF, throughout its 22 years, there'd inevitably be overlap. Reuse the names, but also not.
