There’s been a trend with Square Enix games these last few years to have completely crazy names. Take the examples from this comic: Kingdom Hearts 385/2 Days and Dissidia 012[duodecim] Final Fantasy. Yes, I know its supposed to be written as 012 and pronounced as duodecim, but why not just call it Dissidia 2?  Why the absurdly confusing title?  Let’s not forget the recently announced Kingdom Hearts 3D, where the 3 Ds stand for “Dream Drop Distance”. Yeah…

As for Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell of Ar Ciel, I just needed a hard to pronounce RPG name.  I know this is a Namco Bandai / NIS game, not Square Enix.  I guess I could have used other strange names, something like Prinny 2: Dawn of Operation Panties, Dood! instead.
