Anyone who played Final Fantasy Tactics should know Ivalice is synonym of the Viera race!...
You never know with Yoshi-P and the dev team though, we can swim now yet there is no Blitzball!...
So you know how Ivalice is coming to town...?

Probably that, I remember playing with Viera in a GBA game, also I didn't know FFXII's races are dead know, didn't they manage to save the realm!?...
This is FFXIV anyway and the producer and the dev team can revive any race they want, some Viera must have survived and they have multiplied ever since!... -

Story-wise, background text in Tactics mentions a Cataclysm that wiped out every non-hume race at some point after XII but before Tactics, Tactics Advance (GBA) takes place in the far future of Ivalice then transports to a dream Ivalice, while Luso from A2 (DS) DOES go to a post-XII, post-Revenant Wings Ivalice.

10-12-2017, 01:48 PMRobert_IlcriThough with how FF14 has stated that Rabanastre was built on top of Lesalia... Wouldn't that mean FF12 actually takes place after the War of the Lions events do? Though I don't agree Viera should be a playable race, like others have stated enough with the fan service characters. We're more likely to get the wolfman race since its already coded in, meaning it would just need some tweaking or possibly Bangaa considering its showing them off in the raid content but who knows.Quote:

Not being able to wear shoes is a crap excuse not to put in a race (quoted from here.) EverQuest had their beastial races not wear hats or boots, and even other games do it. But they are fine in a game.
Now saying that making a working model in FF14 is difficult is something different. -

XIV Ivalice is not the same as the Ivalice Alliance games, it's just filled with references to it, especially because Matsuno's in charge of the raid this time around, Rabanastre made more sense to be previewed because Dalmasca had already been mentioned in passing in XIV, while the realms of Tactics Ivalice had not. Bestiary entries in XII and background info in Tactics put Tactics as a sort of "middle ages" in Ivalice while XII is in the far past before the Cataclysm.
