((Hope you don’t mind my adding to this))

The order of and the days of the week are:

Firesday –> Earthsday –> Watersday –> Windsday –> Iceday –> Lightningday –> Lightsday –> Darksday

[morebarkthanbite]

They also refer to years as seasons. Yda said something along the lines of ‘When I was twelve summers old.’ or something.

[momma-mentor-ffxiv]

all this, seriously helpful. <3 Thank you so much.

[anneapocalypse]

For those interested in sources for this lore:

So far as I can tell, the days of the week listed above (Firesday, Earthsday, etc) never actually appear in the game. (I can’t speak to bonus content like the short stories off the top of my head, but should I ever run across any examples, I’ll take note of it.) This seems to be entirely Word of God, specifically a 2014 interview with localization director Michael Christopher Koji Fox, who states that the days of the week are the same as in Final Fantasy XI. (Cited here on the archived roleplayers’ forum.)

Gamerescape also has this handy reference page on Eorzean time.

Multiple sources heavily cite The Five Ages - An Eorzean Chronology, which appeared in 1.0 by way of “Dusty Tomes” found in various guilds. These texts didn’t return in the remake (except, amusingly, as a housing item), so we’re reliant on the fandom’s archivists to preserve them. When you see someone refer to “Dusty Tomes,” as in the roleplayers’ forum posts linked above, that’s what they’re talking about.

As a side note: while the units of distance and weight measurement above fully replace our real-world units, that is not the case for the units of time. “Hour” and “bell” seemed to be used about equally in MSQ dialogue (thank you @eriyu once again for your service). Though “moon” is more common, “month” appears more than a few times. “Day” is more common than “sun.” “Sennight” is barely there (though it pops up a few more times in side content), and as it’s technically a misnomer that tends to needle a lot of detail-minded fans, I wouldn’t feel obligation to use it over “week,” which appears far more often in canon anyway. “Fortnight” is similarly a misnomer, but a bit more commonly used since there isn’t a alternative word for “two weeks.” There are no alternate words for minutes or seconds; they’re called the same as we do.

bring back hard mode (HM) dungeons

hot take?? but hard mode dungeons are amazing and I hate that they stopped making them because they

allow the devs to get more use out of old game assets

allow for fun new views of familiar environments (nighttime vs daytime, lush & pristine vs immense disrepair, normal fucked up vs supremely fucked up, and so on)

provide opportunity for microcosmic/hyperlocal non-MSQ storytelling (that people will still actually be motivated to do because of the dungeon requirement!)

provide opportunity for PROGRESSION of perhaps "forgotten" story beats

offer more options for gear progression and glamour

free us from the 50/50 chance expert roulette hellscape

help endgame not feel so completely stuck in the current zone or lore environment (feeling that right now in 7.3 especially)

I could go on and on here.... and it's not like I love every single HM (there are several I can't stand, actually) but I am so glad they exist, and I think they should revisit the concept. thanks for coming to my mog talk.
