The Unknown Lore of Cactuars

[@pharoahanakaris3202]

Fun fact: In the movie Kingsglaive, there's a scene where the protagonist and his friends were snacking and drinking at a nearby food vendor. And if you look closely at the vendor's shop, he has alot of what seems to be dried cactuars for consumption. It seems in their world, cactuars are edible and are a delicacy

[@rhettbaldwin2417]

now maybe we know why they're rare and run all the time. maybe they used to be common and possibly even docile, but then someone got trigger happy with fire magic, and a Cactuar got hit accidentally. then one thing led to another, and here they are hunting the Cactuars to near extinction. sucks, too, because Cactuars are my favorite FF creature, besides Tonberries. They both tie for first, I think. but yeah, poor little Cactuars

Hate to break it to you, but if they're readily available at a bar, they're probably not a delicacy and more normal food 😭

[@TheColeTruth]

I can't get over how bizarre they look in both the MMO's. Cool video!!!

[@SkullLeaderwolfx]

Thank you for doing this lore video

First found these guys in Monster Hunter World while fighting a Deviljho. Did a double take mid fight when I spotted it, and when the deviljho hit both me and the Cactaur, it proceeded to unleash a torrent of spiky spines that chased off the big pickle monster lol

[@phucpham7081]

Cactuar not just a monster character but more like a mascot character this character appear alot in final fantasy games

[@Mercenarytank15]

The Funniest thing is that I thought it was Pronounced "Cactaur" (Like a Centaur) and used to pronounce it as such. I was surprised I had been pronouncing it wrong for years.

[@brobasticbroham446]

IMO these little dudes should be the FF mascot not the moogle

[@lucidsEmerald232]

I think chocobo's are more of a mascot than anything because they have there on game as well

Yes, a very old one and comparatively obscure, "Final Fantasy Unlimited". I've never seen it myself so I can't speak to its quality

[@jeremyhall2727]
