#I just thought the unique titles were neat:tm:

Still wondering why they decided to replace the Sinners' unique titles in limbus with generic ones.
Tumblr media
in the TGS build, you can see the sinners have their titles they were introduced with in twitter posts, while in the launch build it's a generic "Sinner #x"
Tumblr media
Weirdly enough, you can still see all of them in the theater section.

I wonder if they omitted them to give the sinners a less unique, more expendable feel to them. As they are just kinda infinitely regenerating bodies to throw at problems. I personally think they added a nice lil bit of character and would love to see them return at some point.
Here's a list of the titles and what I can find for their translations/brief meanings (shoutouts to @stillakyu for help on Yi Sang and Ryoshu's)
No.1 Yi Sang - 하융 (Pseudonym used by the real life Yi Sang.)
No.2 Faust - WALPURGISNACHT (Walpurgis Night)
No.3 Don Quixote - SUEÑO IMPOSIBLE ("Impossible Dream" in Spanish, named after the song inspired by the original novel)
No.4 Ryoshu - 無我夢中 阿鼻叫喚 支離滅裂 ("As one falls into an obsession, even the screams of hell scatter into nothingness")
No.5 Meursault - SOLEIL ("Sun" in French)
No.6 Hong Lu - 太虛幻境 ("The Realm of Heavenly Etherealness")
No.7 Heathcliff - REVENGE (Revenge means Revenge)
No.8 Ishmael - HEARSE (Vehicle for transporting coffins)
No.9 Rodion - РАСКО́Л ("Split" in Russian)
No.10 Dante - DURANTE (Name of the poet Dante)
No.11 Sinclair - VOGEL ("Bird" in German)
No.12 Outis - Ουτις ("Nobody" in Greek)
No.13 Gregor - UNGEZIEFER ("Vermin" in German)
