The more you read into the game's quest lines the more it does seem like it's set sometime in the future of Vanadiel even if it's a "different world" - Goldsmith quest for example, one of the earlier automata's were named Mnejing many many years (century) ago and remodeled and renamed into Gigi - So you can say it's a nod, but at the same time, given Atomos's Existence and his purpose, we know Vanadiel has at least 2 Timelines that exists and it's not that far fetched in the long run, we'll see what SE does with the stories "explaining why Mamool Ja's are in this world", not to mention the whole fact Shanttoto herself created Dimensional Magic.

It's a very common and accepted idea that the FF worlds were all meant to be linked in some fashion without the obvious "Sequel" thing.
