It might be true that Dissidia exists, but remember that Dissidia is not FFXIV.
As far as I know Dissidia is an arcade fighting game and built from the ground to be one, not an RPG. It doesn't seem to be tied down by lore like FFXIV is.

But nothing tells us that open world PvP can never happen. Even WoW started without open world PvP, it didn't even have Battlegrounds, just like FFXIV.
