## Key points

- Yoshida is puzzled by Chort’s meme popularity.
- Chort is a minor boss in patch 7.5.
- The team welcomes community enthusiasm.

## Summary

Final Fantasy 14 director and producer Naoki Yoshida has said he does not fully understand why players have embraced Chort, a minor dungeon boss that has become a popular online meme. The response highlights how seemingly incidental characters can become community favourites and generate engagement beyond their intended role in the game.

Chort appears in the Clyteum dungeon in patch 7.5, where the large creature rolls around the arena during battle. Yoshida acknowledged its popularity at the Berlin Fan Festival and said the development team enjoys seeing players’ unexpected reactions on social media, even if he only partly understands Chort’s appeal.
