I hope the G-Warrior Questline is heading into a Xenogears crossover

Because it would be neat to see Valens pilot Weltall and its oversoul version will be Weltall-Id as the final Robot as a surprise twist lol; his battle theme will be KNIGHT OF FIRE since his armor is all fiery and red.

I might be placing too much hope into this, but I noticed certain themes with G-Warrior that are very similar to Xenogears and Xenosaga in terms of gameplay (and its gas unit relying on EP) that I hope will get a surprise crossover.

... That'd be pretty sweet actually ;)
Though really I just hope they're not done with it.

(Personally I think the G-warrior looks more like King Gainer).

g-warrior is a reference to gundam

watch the cutscenes

I feel like there could be a lot of fun with that just being a whole actual content piece, gears I mean. On your thread point yeah a Xenosaga or gears crossover could be interesting too lol.

I like the you referencing to gears since like in xeno in general calling your mech was a little bit of an ordeal lol. I think that Gears would have made a significantly better limited job concept than blue, with a much better control over progression / rate, and still offering and perhaps more so a wildly different gameplay style. Would be interesting if they don't drop the concept in the future and keep toying with it.

Some Armorcore, Robotech, Gundam, Xeno, Apple, Zone of the Enders, what have you content :p.

This wouldn't be the first time Xenogears crossed over to a Final Fantasy game if it happens. World of Final Fantasy also did a crossover with Xenogears.

I think a Xenogears crossover with Final Fantasy XIV would be pretty cool crossover. Maybe bring in Tetsuya Takahashi as a special guest.

Another fan of Xenogears?! YAY. It's my favorite game.

I was so reminded of Grahf with Gaius's armor.'
And Ryne kinda made me do a double take and go "Elly?!"

G-Warrior is a reference to a LOT of mecha. The design of the "hair tentacles" is reminiscent of Overman King Gainer, the sound effect heard when it first pulls out its sword is the Newtype Flash sound effect from Gundam, Pyretic Booster's red glow is very reminiscent of Weltall's Id form from Xenogears, EP was the "battery" gauge for the Gears (mechs) in Xenogears, the Auto Restoration skill seems like a callback to the Frame HP (sacrifices fuel for HP) and Charger (restores fuel via using the Charge command) accessories for Gears in Xenogears, and the Ultima Buster is pretty much every giant mecha laser ever.

Honestly I just wish we'd keep the G-Warrior around. Hell, just make the MSQ a mecha story for the Garlean arc! Only half joking. As unlikely its to happen, the G-Warrior Duty had me giddy like a 10 year old on christmas eve.

Would dig a msq as you said that uses a mecha mount, with actual actions that did stuff like in praetorium. Would be super dope, esp if we could custom dye it

Having a customizable mecha the same way we have customizable chocobos sounds really cool to me; being able to dye it and augment it with parts to change the way it looks and functions. Aside from a potential Xenogears crossover, Square Enix should really consider expanding on the mecha battle we had by adding a mecha content that we can queue up as a group.

They could add in a New PVP mode just for that; seems like there is still a dedicated base for PVP in some Data Centers

or

Some kind of additional mode to Rival Wings.

Yeah...no thanks. I'd rather they expand on the XIV universe instead of shoehorning more crossovers into the game. The Nier raids already fit about as well into the world as a square peg in a round hole.


I know it's a themepark mmo but a bit of in-universe consistency would be appreciated.

I wouldn't want a direct crossover, but it'd be cool if future weapons reference even more Gears, Gundams, and other mecha.

To add to the references now that I've done the SoW questline.
Hangar was definitely a xenogears reference, the view of the mecha, the options it gives you to ask about it, that was all just like the hangar in Xenogears.
The MUSIC at the end that plays in Terncliff later, has an opener like the Anima Relic/Zeboim music from Xenogears.

This whole thing had me see it as a giant Xeno reference which was awesome.

I just want an actual G-Warrior mount. It's just collecting dust in some research facility somewhere.

Would not be surprised to see our Gundam in Endwalker. No way are they not going to reuse that combat mechanic.

Being someone never play Xenogear
Pyretic Booster look like a reference for Gundam 00 trans-AM to me

Aetherial Aegis look like a Nu Gundam reference

those 2nd dialogue choices definitely scream Gundam reference and even Cid joke about it

Can’t say it is entirely referencing Gundam, but lots of it

I wouldn't mind that tbh, it is certainly more interesting than playing one of the Scions because they're just a basic job reduced to 3-4 buttons. G-Warrior is atleast somewhat new in terms of the abilities it has, and if they bring it back multiple times they could expand the amount of skills since everyone will slowly get used to them.


On top of that it would just be an absolute waste to not reuse it, quite a lot of work must've gone into creating the assets and animations for it.

I loved Xenogears, but man, leave it out of XIV. Tired of story content dropped into XIV that goes nowhere.
