Do western people associate mythical eastern creature Dragons as Dinosaurs? Because I have no idea why the localization team would call "Ancient Dragon City" as "Archosaur".

According to this FAQ:
Q : What will the NPC names be like?
A : for the most part, we're going to sticking with the Pinyin (romanized Chinese) versions of the name. So yer not going to find "NPC Fred" giving you a lecture on ancient Chinese-related lore and whatnot. seemed somewhat out of place. (Orinj)

But guess what, there is no such thing as dinosaurs in this game either. So, please stick to the Pinyin version of the name.

    There exist only three beings worthy of respect:
    the priest, the soldier, the poet.
    To know, to kill, to create.

    I like how Crackfang lynxes became Crackpot lynxes. Or something along those lines, I don't remember the exact name x]

    There's a mount that kind of looks like Tyrannosaurus rex. Everyone help turn Archosaur City into the city of Dinosaurs by purchasing the T. Rex, and riding it in the city! :p Archosaur seems like a weird name, given that in the middle of the city, there are 4 Dragons making up the giant center fountain. And dragons are the only "reptilian" decorations I can find in the city. Maybe, they changed the storyline, and now those are dinosaurs that happen to look like dragons? :confused::confused::confused:
