Do you know how much negative backlash Drk mains in FFXI would put up if they were to transfer their characters to FFXIV. This would be one of the worst things SE could do with the properties. The same would happen with FFXI's Nin mains. FFXIV's system is just too different to port characters from FFXI into there is a reason that there are a lot of diehard FFXI fans that can't stand FFXIV. So no what you wanted will never happen.
again, there's Dissidia, where Shantoto & Prishe made their crossover. There's also Record Keepers, Brave Exvius, etc which also has their crossovers. lol

In fact, Kingdom Hearts alone are IMO an impossible crossover. And yet... here we are, living with their franchise spanning 2 decades.

As for FF14 itself, it already has crossover with Yokai Watch, and now-ongoing GARO franchise.

I do understand you concern regarding gameplay mechanic, but that wasn't what I'm even suggesting in first place. In fact, I kinda prefer gameplay mechanic stay within each series. What I'm suggesting is on the story side, that's all! If you haven't played FF14, I'll just inform you that there's past event where Shantoto and even Iroha made their entrance there. And surprisingly, it's not just another cameo. Especially with Iroha, her involvement were kinda make sense when you think about what happened in Rhapsodies between chapter 2 & 3 story. She even has dialogues that suggested my counterpart on both Vana'diel & Eorzea are one and the same (which I am XD ).

There's also 2 (or 3 figures) to mention here. One is Gilgamesh. No, not the one in FF11 I'm afraid, but the FF5 ones which I believed crossed many worlds, and I even believe his existence in current Eorzea are one and the same with his original FF5 appearance, tho some may differs. And another is Cloud of Darkness and the Void which serves as the main villain for Rhapsodies. The Void itself can be said as concurrent major villain for almost every FF series. Heck... it may be suggested that (almost) every FF realms was connected to this entity in some way, which I believe was one of the basis behind Dissidia storyline. I haven't played far with Dissidia myself, so I can't be certain, but the Void has been referenced alot from various info I read.

So in the end, yes, I'm still crossing my fingers since SE did make the impossible possible. lol
