Final Fantasy 14 Dataminer Reveals the Chattiest Character in the Game

Final Fantasy 14's Chattiest Characters Revealed: Alphinaud Takes the Crown

A comprehensive analysis of Final Fantasy 14 dialogue, spanning from A Realm Reborn to Dawntrail, has unveiled a surprising champion of conversation: Alphinaud. This extensive undertaking, encompassing over a decade of game content, has shocked many veteran players.

The results, meticulously compiled by Reddit user turn_a_blind_eye, detail dialogue counts and most frequent words per character across each expansion. Alphinaud's consistent prominence throughout the game's expansions unsurprisingly secured him the top spot for overall dialogue. However, the third-place contender, Wuk Lamat, introduced in Dawntrail, proved a more unexpected revelation. Wuk Lamat's high ranking highlights the character-driven narrative of the latest expansion.

Another newcomer, Zero, also cracked the top 20, surpassing even the beloved antagonist, Emet-Selch. Meanwhile, Urianger's linguistic quirks were revealed, with "tis," "thou," and "Loporrits" (the Endwalker moon rabbits) dominating his vocabulary, reflecting his interactions in the expansion and subsequent quests.

Key Findings:

• Alphinaud: Holds the record for most dialogue in FFXIV.
• Wuk Lamat: Secures a surprising third place, showcasing Dawntrail's focus on its characters.
• Urianger: His speech patterns reveal a fondness for "tis," "thou," and "Loporrits."

The future of FFXIV looks bright as we head into 2025. Patch 7.2 is anticipated early in the year, with Patch 7.3 expected to bring the Dawntrail storyline to its conclusion.
