Final Fantasy 14 gives Fall Guys official MMO lore, and it's deeply cursed

The Final Fantasy 14 team has gone the extra mile to make sure the recent Fall Guys collaboration makes sense in the world of Eorzea, 𓆏which is a lovel𓂃y touch until you realize some of the unhinged lore the MMO now has as a result. 

After you head to Final Fantasy 14’s spin on the Gold Saucer to talk to the necessary people to gain access to the Fall Guys-st🌠yle mini-games, you’ll enter a suitable vibrant room with familiar music. You’re then free to walk up to someone – called the Beankeep – behind the desk to finish an introductory quest. There are several things you can ask them for the sake of small talk, including what the deal is with those strange creatures who are wandering🧔 around. 

In reply, they explain that they were found wandering about the Gold Saucer and that they&rsq🥃uo;re unsure of the Beans’ origin, though it doesn’t influence how taken they are with them. That said, they do lightly suggest they could be꧙ Voidsent, Seedkin, or something else entirely. 

If you need a quick refresher, Voidsent are beings of the void that have been starved of their lifefo🌌rce whereas Seedkins are basically angry sentient flora. Two things that are morbidly at odds with the Beans’🐷 adorable appearance, then. 

That’s not 🎉all th🦄e Final Fantasy 14 team has done to make Fall Guys Eorzea ready, though. As you can see with the fetching Fall Guys-inspired headgear, the writing has been changed to Eorzean. 

The efforts certainly haven’t gone unnoti🌱ced by the community either.

Now, that’s not all🅠 the collaboration had added to the game. Anyone who plays Final Fantasy 14 will tell you that the cutest minions and mounts often have the most unhinged dialogue. Just look at the Fatter Cat’s entr🦂y.

The Bean minion is, of course, no exception.

“Little is known about these mysterious life forms that suddenly appeared in the Gold Saucer apart from the fact that they love to race, and this specimen has apparently decided that it wants to race you without end,” the journal entry . &ldqꦜuo;Rumor has it that underneath its rotund exterior is a skeleton that looks like a nightmarish amalgam of man and bird, but there is no ready way to determine the truth.”

If you weren’t ℱaround for Fall Guys at its peak, various social media banter led develope🧔r Mediatonic to reveal what’s going on under your character’s suit. Oh boy, was that a mistake.

"Actuallyꦰ, yeah, them being voidsent makes more sense when you 🧔remember this monstrosity," one fan .

We did this, an♎d now the ♋meme is forever etched into Final Fantasy 14.

Meanwhile, the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 14 x Fall Guys event has also kicked up netcode frustrations that have been lingering over the MMO for the past 10 years.
