==Localization inconsistency== | |||
The character currently localized as ''Robbin Ood'' has had a very bizarre experience with the English language since the merger of [[Enix]] and Square in 2004. Originally, Enix of America simply romanized his name as ''Kandar'', and this remained consistent until the release of the first Joker game. In that title, the character was dubbed ''Robbin Hood'' and this name was kept through the localization of the DS version of DQ V. | |||
The localization of the second Joker game created a problem by interpreting '''カンダタおやぶん''' (Boss Kandar) as a separate person altogether. The intent that this was an advanced version of the same character was either ignored by Square-Enix's localization staff or simply not understood, and as such was given the name ''Prince o' thieves''. This has lead to confusion among fans, as the only palette swap of the Hoodlum enemy to have anything to do with banditry as been Kandar/Robbin Ood throughout the entire series. | |||
The situation became more convoluted with the localization of the cell phone port of the third game, in which the Robbin hood name was shortened to a more cockeny-accented ''Robbin Ood''. The reason for this is currently unknown. | |||
Robbin ood's henchmen have also suffered inconsistent adaptations into English, with the ''Robbin huddle'' enemy that debuts in DQ III being split into two groups when no distinction existed in the original Japanese. An entirely new English name (''Merry man'') was assigned to these same goons for their return in DQ XI. | |||
