Trying to figure out Urianger's manner of speaking is a multistep process. First, you might wonder if it's just how some people in that world speak. Then, you might think it's partly a nationality thing. Finally, it becomes increasingly clear as you get closer to and then into Endwalker that, no, that's just how he talks cause he's extra nerdy and a bit awkward.

Listening to Urianger speak is like learning an entirely new language. At first, you have no idea what he's saying and only get a general idea based on a few key words and what others are saying. But as time passes, you'll be able to understand him just fine.

[@TheDaxter11]

Yep. I was intentionally reading his dialogue normally after deciphering it in the base game, but I think either near the end of the base game story or at the start of Heavensward I stopped, and come Shadowbringers I can understand and speak fluent Uriangese.

[@OkamiG15]

It's especially funny because canonically the Echo is supposed to translate all language for you so that you understand it. Which means Uriang-ese transcends Hydaelyn's ability to understand.

[@summerguy6]

[@OkamiG15]

@@summerguy6 that appears to be something wholly unique to powerful dragons, Alphinaud saying something along the lines of, “I hear dragon talk in my ears but can also hear it in my mind.” But people with Echo can understand all spoken languages, from lesser dragons, to voidsent, to random monsters like the gremlin in the ShB trailer, even a particular Chocobo(?). They make reference to that ability quite a bit throughout the story.

[@redgeoblaze3752]

Honestly, going through this whole thing, I never thought he'd actually betrayed us, but I had a gameplay reason for it.
He's the quest giver for the Bahamut raid. If he betrayed us, he wouldn't appear in the waking sands again, and the whole quest chain would need to be rewritten without him.
I can understand some minor plot holes from the nature of quest design. For example, I started Dragoon right after finishing 3.0 but before any patch content. Estinien shows up in that quest despite being kind of busy at the moment. But it might just be a step too far to have a character who we might know to be against us working with us without a word, That's assuming the player doesn't understand how the format of the game works, but you can't assume anything when it's someone's first game of this style for example.

Well, Ardbert and his gang were definitely being strung along by Elidibus at that point. But Lahabrea was the former keyward of Pandaemonium, the one that would have been a specialist in that kind of creation magic. Lahabrea didn't die until later in the expansion from this scene so it's feasible that they could have given him a basic version of the ability.
