What *SPOILER* did you found in The Rising?

[Aurelle_Delacroix]

I do think that there needs to be a certain way that this story progresses. After all, we still need to handle everything in Eorzea first. Heavensward problems aside (like Nidhogg and the soon to be released Void Ark) and then problems that have rolled over from A Realm Reborn (like Omega still in the Flats). Once that's handled we still have Ala Mhigo to worry about since that was technically an Eorzean city state at one point. Once we free them, then I think we should start going to Thavnairian Archepeligo and then to Othard to help free them.

Before reaching 18th Floor, I have a big bet those bugs are related to Omega. Just my speculation. :P

I loved how they wrecked the fourth wall. Also, that bit about stamping out one bug only for two more to pop up? Totally true.

Anyway, the only thing pointing to a future Primal that I saw was the Elezen who mentioned Doomtrain.

You could say that the 18th floor exists Beyond the 4th wall.

Probably not. Aside from Omega still being a scrap heap half-buried in Cartenau, the bugs are a big programming joke. (I'm not going to explain it to you.) The 18th Floor is so meta that I wouldn't take much of anything that happened during the quest seriously.

The Final Fantasy IV references just keep stacking up...

Kain minion and Baron equipment from pre-order/CE.
The moon at the end.
Alexander/Giant of Babil.
Now we have the secret Developers Room with the 18th Floor...

I would not be surprised if the "maybe we'll go with the final boss for the next extreme battle..." mentioned ends up being Zeromus... I have long since suspected that the Twelveswood might be a Forest of Moore reference, with ExDeath sealed within... More so the moment Krile got name dropped... What do Zeromus and ExDeath have in common? Espers; Zeromus, the Condemner, and Exodus, the Judge-Sal. Belias, the Gigas was already brought up long ago in the Summoner questline, it should only be a matter of time till the others are... Tiamat warned us that the Allag sealed a lot of Primals/Eikons away, I expect the Ivalice Espers to be turning up sooner or later... Given most of them were based on the final bosses of previous games... Yeah...

Hate to be a party pooper on the Dark Steel Theory train, but "The Final Boss" ment FF14\\'s Final Boss. 2.0 we got Ultima Weapon HM (Which was actually EX Trial level content) and Thorden VII was The Final Boss of 3.0. It\\'s almost conferming Thorden EX for a future patch.

In Knights of the Round EX I hope Zephirin gets to play a bigger role.

I've been at work so I can't contribute to the discussion of potential Easter Eggs in Rising. I'll report back later if I find anything.
