Serf (npub1wzz…mru5) JRPGs do tend to be retarded when it comes to ages, acting like people in their 30s are Old is very much something I've repeatedly encountered before. A character like Lora being revealed to be 27 years old was highly unusual and refreshing in that context.
However, I can't really remember a game botching *height* that badly before, it'd be like if Xenoblade 2 listed Nia and Morag as both being the same height.
