47948201 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Why does everyone spell it that way, there's really only one revelation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Grima Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 "Revelations" to some people sounds a little better to say in sentences than "Revelation". And the actual title is "Revelation". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thane Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I wonder why it's called Revelation and not "Sunshine and kittens". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightBow Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Probably because that title should go to Conquest. It's like an Undertale pacifist run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azure Sen Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 People do that all the time with the word revelation for some reason. Something about it drives people to add that extra s. It's just one of those weird little things people do, sometimes without realizing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avalanche Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I wonder why it's called Revelation and not "Sunshine and kittens". So is Birthright now "Lyn's Prologue 0.5" and Conquest "Rock Bottom"? I kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookofholsety Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 i mean, english-speaking humanity as a whole has sort of spent at least twenty years adamantly refusing to not misspell "rogue". we are all collectively very good at not getting names entirely right, and let's face it, there's like a million things called "revelations", plural. we're so used to seeing it pluralised that it doesn't even occur to us that maybe fe14 is calling it "revelation", singular :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NekoKnight Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) i mean, english-speaking humanity as a whole has sort of spent at least twenty years adamantly refusing to not misspell "rogue". we are all collectively very good at not getting names entirely right, and let's face it, there's like a million things called "revelations", plural. we're so used to seeing it pluralised that it doesn't even occur to us that maybe fe14 is calling it "revelation", singular :P This. Also, I think the plural comes more easily because usually when you think about groundbreaking new truths, you think of it as a series of reveals, ie more than one. Revelation (singular) just doesn't sound as significant. Edited May 22, 2016 by NekoKnight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book Bro Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Actually I've also seen "Birthrights" and even "Conquests". I dunno man. I vote we should call it "Lack-of-Revelations" tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darros Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I wonder why it's called Revelation and not "Sunshine and kittens". Because Scarlet. I've never actually noticed that it's Revelation and not Revelations. I just went with the flow. ...google search likes to make nintendo disagree with itself though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurrin Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 As loose a term as it is, multiple revelations are revealed so it's fitting enough I guess. Plus it sounds better than Revelation when speaking it. Although I haven't really noticed many people saying Revelations in my experience. Usually I see it shortened to Rev and even I call it One Shots: The Path instead of its actual name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinehollow Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Honestly I wish they would've gone with something other than "Revelation" because it makes you think that there's going to be a big revelation but there isn't at all. Even if you didn't spoil yourself like I did when the Japanese version came out the revelation probably didn't feel that big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Res Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Because Scarlet. I've never actually noticed that it's Revelation and not Revelations. I just went with the flow. ...google search likes to make nintendo disagree with itself though This. I never knew it wasn't Revelations. I DO know how to spell Rogue though, please.

Locke087 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I have never even thought about it I just called it Revelations because it flows better didn't even realize it was just called Revelation, The more you know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryogeist Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Yeah, for a while there I was calling it Revelations. Dunno why, just sounded better in my head I guess. Then I started to force myself to just say Revelation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Leu Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 I wonder why it's called Revelation and not "Sunshine and kittens". Or Obvious True Path. Or Naruto. Or Plot-devices. Or *insert many names that mock all the BS that Revelation contain* Eh, now that I'm thinking about it, it make me think of Persona 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jave Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Well, there's certainly more than one revelation in the route. (i.e. Oboro x Beruka) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
