Astalos reminds me of  the astaroth, a demon, fitting with his brutal nature, Glavenus keeps remindimg me of Glaives, sharp weapons that are like throwing swords, Gammoth is simply Gamuto but "Muto" is still mammoth, and Mizutsune..... Is still Japanese... Dude, I like Astalos, Gammoth, Mizutsune, and Glavenus. They're all pretty cool (AND meaningful).

If there's any names I hate, they're "Jurassic Frontier", "Great Maccao", and "Bherna". I don't see why "Jurassic Frontier" sounds so bad to you. For me it's probably the most badass area name the localization team has come up with for a while. Well, when you think of the name "Jurassic Frontier", you usually think of spending lots of money on building a time machine, just so you can go 153 million years back, and end up on a wide, flat, desert-like environment, getting to see actual giant dinosaurs gallivant across the landscape, with smaller dinosaurs fleeing from their footsteps, and pterosaurs flying high in the sky. It just really evokes a sense of majesty.

Yet, when you spend two days on a ship to go to a forest that only looks 20% prehistoric (and is mostly filled with rather modern-looking monsters) you don't feel that sense.

You know why?

Because you've done zilch, that's why.
