What if FFXIV was part of the Fabula Nova Crystallis?

Overall, as XIV and the FNC are the only games in recent memory that actually involve crystals as a major plot point, it is an entertaining thought to follow.

That;s because XIV is meant to Incorporated past elements of the previous Final Fantasies, and crystals were a plot point int the first few games ina ddition to the gaem you already mention (which is also why Bravely Default had crystals as a plot point)

to add, only 3 games are actually directly connected, type-0 was only connected because of sharing the lore and XV, as Enkidoh stated, has been exercized of anything connecting it to the FNC lore.

That remidns me, was Toriyama demoted over the recepetion of the games, they didn't bomb unlike say...Spirits Within so I don't think he'd be fired, they they ARE polarisizng so I expected that he did get punished somehow.

I'm aware of this. I was going to include Bravely Default, but as it is not actually a Final Fantasy game, I elected to ignore it.

I think you're the only one who actually decided to answer the question rather than complain about XIII

It's an interesting question in my opinion. Story aside, the world and the themes around the FNC I find quite interesting.
