He (Pero Vermúdez) let go the lance and took the sword in hand; when Ferrán González saw that, he recognized Tizona, and before the expected blow said, "I am defeated!"

Tizona has a history much older than FFXI.

Everything in FF or FFXI is based on history/mythology of some kind, but it's pretty clear they're referencing XI.

Nice find. Maybe they're hinting that the leaders of the companies will appear after the patch today?

True. The references to FFXI is clear. I do not question that.

What I would question is drawing a conclusion that Raubahn, or the Immortal Flames have anything to do with Blue Mages in FFXIV. That would be similar to drawing the conclusion that Kan-E-Senna is a Summoner because she wields Claustrum.

It's simply too early to draw such conclusions.

I still don't know if the chocobos in that main picture make me drool with excitement or tremble in fury. Seems like a teaser and a massive "wouldn't you like to march into battle like that huh" F.U. at the same time.

I know. Considering all you do is troll around, just pick the latter option and stop fooling around.

I'm actually wondering if they're going to add some company-related content today, considering that the timing is rather precise.

We're going to see in a few hours.

They named their weapons.

That could be a hint that they were finalizing their lore before they released them in game. Because if the weapons they carry are special and only they have them and they look awesome Se doesn't want to have to tell players "You can't have them they are NPC only" over and over again.

I wouldn't read too much into names and such. Remember than this kind of things change quite a lot between different chapters of the series. It's not at all a given that a weapon with the same name will be associated to the same class.
