So, early in 2025, Square Enix suddenly hit the Final Fantasy 14 mod, Mare Synchronos, with a cease and desist. It was a total shock to the community!

I’ve noticed Jinwoo is a really striking character – confident, seemingly unbothered, and incredibly powerful. It’s not surprising he’s become so popular, and fans even voted him the best main character of 2025!
