Changed line(s) 3 from:

** FinalFantasyXIV: \
to:
** FinalFantasyXIV: \\\"To create characters on your FINAL FANTASY XIV service account, you must possess automatically continuous options.\\\"

This is just something people get confused over. \\\'Automatically Continuous Options\\\' is a proper term as defined by the account agreements and so forth, it\\\'s just nobody bothers to read those. The above, in fact, is a perfectly fine translation in light of legal documentation, it\\\'s just bad phrasing on the part of someone who speaks English in the first place.

I originally added a similar explanation as a note on the page proper, but of course, we\\\'re supposed to remove irrelevant entries, aren\\\'t we? So now I\\\'ve removed it, added this explanation here, and replaced the removed segment instead with the story about how the outsourced localisers mis-translated Chocobo as \\\'horse-bird\\\'. And then \\\'Chocopo\\\'.
