Even in XI Shinryu makes an appearance in the same dimension where we never take out Omega, which too was designed to seek out a destroy a certain dragon (not Bahamut.)

    2. It'll be a FATE.

    3. Alexander would be a bit touchy since..generally he's some kind of protector or holy element, FFXIV has no light/dark/special elements anymore. (Even Astral/Umbral is missing for the most part.)

    4. The only Gun stuff we heard of was that Musketeer will be magic based, honestly I hope not - Garleans need something to set them apart and if we're rocking their full technology and advances in warfare..what makes them unique? What makes them this all powerful empire?

    5. There's only 2 spots left: Eureka, which was a treasure cave and will probably be a pitiful 4 man dungeon in ARR and the Dark Crystal, which is where the Warriors of Dark and Cloud of Darkness is. So "Full story" would happen at 2.6 or so most likely.

    6. We'll never see Siren and Diabolos again, they're 4 man fodder in throwaway instances

    So after Shiva it'll get interesting for sure but Fenrir is traditional now and XI pretty much solidfied his place as an important summon, he was HUGELY important to XI's storyline just like Carbuncle was so if he goes back to having almost no importance to anything, it would be a bit weird.

    I look forward to the day we knock some sense back into the Archbishops' head. -rubs hands together with glee- Betcha anything they convinced the Holy See that Shiva would solve their dragon problem in one fell swoop only to have it come back and bite them in the butt.

    Wait but that's not true for all of the FF's I don't think. In 10 Omega was a person who died with extreme hatred for yevon over 700 yrs ago. So they do change it up every now and again.

    This is true, in 8 he was just a twisted version of Ultima Weapon, and Ultima was just a science experiment gone awry, intended to defeat sorceresses.

    I actually would really like to see Alexander as well, and Cerberus.
